[QUOTE="canuckxxxx, post: 198606, member: 2409"] One thing I have not liked about the way this 1200 performs is the shifting. More specifically the clutch seems to drag so finding neutral is hard and miss shifts and false neutral are common :Awe: . I'm pretty sure that the problem is because I have oil building up in the clutch area which the scavenger pump is supposed to get rid of. I have pull the engine a couple of times and had the scavenger pump out and checked it and it seems to pump pretty good. Then I have been disappointed after putting it all back together to find the same problem. I think it is oil buildup because when I pull the engine and take the cover off a lot of oil comes out. OK so I have it out yet again, took the clutch off and here is the scavenger pump. [GALLERY=media, 32461][/GALLERY] Took the scavenger pump off without taking it apart I put the bottom in a pan with oil and turned it...it pumps even when turned slowly by hand. So maybe the pump is not the problem. When you look at the hole where the pump goes you see the inside of the crankcase and I think it is below the normal engine oil level. [GALLERY=media, 32457][/GALLERY] On the back of the pump there is an o-ring to seal the pump body into the hole and an oil seal where the oil pump shaft goes through. With the o-ring that was on there I couldn't feel that it was sticking up above the level of the o-ring groove. And the oil seal looks suspect. So now I'm thinking that maybe the pump is pumping OK but there is a lot of oil leaking into the clutch area from the crankcase. What do you guys think?
