Hello, So I recently got a new 1/8 absima flywheel for my new force 28 engine. In a nut shell, I've tried two sets of shoes to find that the bell always catches on the shoes and doesnt spin freely. Its a hobao 14t bell if that helps. I now suspect the flywheel and thinking of buying another. Also, 1 of the three pins on it is shorter than the others... Can see that the shoes overhang further. Any tips appreciated. Thanks.

Hello, I have this engine and it seems to have big leak from the back plate. First of all it causes green oil to come out into the pull start and make a right mess everywhere. I have seen a whole engine for sale on ebay, apparently just 1 tank through, and it has some oil come out the pull start already! I have a new backplate kit coming for it so hopefully that takes care of it! I done a leak test on it with soapy water and loads of bubbles around the backplate shaft (not where it seals against engine casing) and also some from the carb pinch bolts. Just wondering if anyone else had issues like this and have any tips? Thanks
