Gear selector shaft seal

Post by Willcox »

Does anyone know if you can change the gear selector shaft seal (on a nc23) without stripping the engine down and removing the shaft?
Cheers

Ive done by gently tapping something sharp through the seal and flicking it out, careful as there is usually a small 'c' clip behind.
