Rotor side seal wavy spring
In taking apart my 86NA engine, I find these very thin, wavy springs beneath the side seals (our equivelent of 'piston' rings?). They all seem to be attached in the center of their arc, and I am afraid to pull on them; they are so thin, if they break off in the bottom of that groove the rotor would be scrap!
Anyone got any experience with this? Thanks. |
Between the heat, oil, and carbon the side seal springs sometimes get stuck and need a persuasive hand to get them out. Even on a basic rebuild it's standard operating procedure to replace these. Put some carb cleaner in the grove and let it soak over night that should loosen it up a bit.

Thanks Dana,
It's simple really. I'll just soak and yank! Dave |
