I am working on a 1969 Mercury and will be digging into the primary chaincase for the first time: servicing the clutch, etc.
I am pretty sure the chaincase is the same as on a 650 SS or Atlas.
I wonder how successful I will be putting it back together without leaks.
Is this a possibility? Or should I just get used to the idea that it will inevitably leak?
If it is near impossible to seal up the chaincase, I might install a belt drive.
I'd appreciate hearing from folks who manage to seal up the chaincase or installed a belt drive to deal with persistent leaks.
