I've got a Go 5 port which is just run in... about 2L thru it now.

In the last couple of days it has oil leaking under the flywheel ... seems to be coming out at the rear edge of the flywheel... which to me suggests a stuffed front bearing- or is that normal?

(After running one tank thru it is about errrr lets say half a mL of oil drips out. )

BTW it is in nice tune, it holds tune perfectly, still bit rich of course, but it will idle for 10sec and then pull away fast so not mega rich thus I think there can't be anything major wrong with the front seal it is not leaking air I guess... that is why I dunno if this is a normal thing
