Good day to all,
Machine, 72 750 with the one center bolt primary cover attachment.
Leaks like stink through the felt clutch seal, the inner primary case gasket and last but not at all least, the 40 year old alternator grommet.
I am doing the thing, but having ordered a new alternator grommet from RGM, I find the new grommet to have quite a different appearance from my old one. New one has a long elephant trunk like tube on one side. Old one didn't....or the snout had been ripped off, that could be too.
Question. Which way is this new fangled grommet with the snout on it inserted in the inner primary case. Snout inside the case, or snout out the back towards the wire connectors? And why...why does it have this snout?
Be thankful for any tips and info... would be a bummer to put it in wrong and end up with more oil on the floor than all those leaks caused before the repair....
Thanks!
