Taggy Posted March 2, 2012 Share Posted March 2, 2012 It seems crank seals on these are fairly common, i think mine is weaping also, i am not looking forward to the prospect of replacing it! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

turbo Grant Posted March 4, 2012 Share Posted March 4, 2012 Not sure what you mean. The pulleys are interchangeable. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
