I may be next on the list for a pump job

About one drop of green fluid evey-other day under the '79. I've only riden it once, for about 45 miles, this season. I have done compression check (all in the 160's) but that's about all. I'll wait until it gets a bit worse. Probably will do seal replacement as replacing mechanical seals was a common task for machinest mates in the Navy. And I don't have to worry about keeping water out of the people tank on the bike.

Will update this thread as things progress.

I lived with one like for for several years. It was an local use only bike and would leak a drop or 2 a day when sitting. I eventually did do it but only when I converted it to my dresser and it was headed out on the road.

Yes, I'm hopeful to make it through the good weather with it.
