Seal #?

[Big Bob]

I have a 6059 ARC GX390 Billet side cover. The PTO side cover seal blew out due to me installing the PVC in backwards! LOL. It actually looks okay but I'd feel safer putting a new one back in. I am fairly certain the ARC seal is thinner than the stock Honda GX 390 seal. I can't find a part number anywhere. No part number on the seal. I suppose I could call ARC on Monday, but I;d like to order today.

Call Arc just to be sure.

I just pulled the original DUROMAX seal out of the stock side cover. Exact measurements as the ARC unit. I'm getting an original Honda seal tomorrow.

Now, It would be a pain to do, but should I remove the blower housing and flywheel and check to see if the other side seal has moved? Kind of hard to get to with the engine mounted.

Better safe than sorry?

 

[Big Bob]

Better safe than sorry?

Probably so. Blower housing ain’t too bad. But getting the flywheel off may be tough. But I know if I don’t check it it’ll come loose. If I do check it it’ll be fine! LOL. Tomorrow I’ll tackle it.

You just described my luck!

 

[Big Bob]

I’ll let you know what I find.
to be quite frank, I prefer wrenching on stuff over riding it. If I got paid $2.25 an hour for the time I’ve spent on this golf cart I’d be Uber rich!

[Big Bob]

The culprit! My Dumass put the PVC valve in backwards.

This penguin takes his car to the mechanic with a leak. He said to the mechanic “I got an oil leak can you fix it”? Mechanic says come back in an hour…. One hour later the penguin comes back with ice cream all over his face. Mechanic says “blew a seal”. The penguin says “no I just had an ice cream cone”!!!!!

I don't unnastan why you need a PVC valve? woundn't a PCV valve be a better choice??
Seriously, why do you need a PVC/PCV valve anyway?

Could be it isn’t needed. I’ve used them for a long time.

You one of those guys that sticks with what works??
If it ain't fixed, then break it. No wait, if it ain't broke then it wasn't designed right.
If it AIn't broke then it should be f****d with anyway.
