G'day everyone,

I was just reading through this thread and I think I have the exact same style steel washer with 2 holes like the one pictured at the start of this thread on the bottom of my old 1971 Victa VC160 lawnmower.

I cleared out most of the string and rubbish from around the bottom shaft and that metal washer seal protector moves a little bit when pushed with a screwdriver.

I will probably also change out this bottom seal as it's leaking a bit. Are they much different to remove and fit when compared to the early 80's full crank engines? As I have changed the top and bottom seals on my 1982 full crank Commando and they weren't that hard to change.

So I guess for my early 70's VC160 full crank engine I need a 17mm seal for the bottom? And a 20mm seal for the top? They don't cost that much it's just i'm not sure how much work is involved to change them out when compared to the early 80's full crank engines?

Cheers!


Zip a dee doo dah, zip a dee ay, another trash picked Victa, hip hip Hooray!
