David, after taking the carby off to be rebuilt, I've pushed it in and out of the garage and there is oil everywhere. Looks like the crankcase and gearbox sump plugs seals are stuffed. That is where the oils is coming from. I'm starting to feel like a real idiot!It is likely a scroll and thrower on the crankshaft without an oil seal. Maybe it simply has too much oil in the sump?
