• The Biplane Forum is a large global active community of biplane builders, owners and pilots. From Pitts to Skybolts, to older barnstormers, all types are welcome. In addition to our active community, our content boasts exhaustive technical information which is often sought after for projects and maintenance. This information has accumulated over the 12+ years the forum has been in existence.

    The Biplane Forum is a private community. Subscriptions are only $49.99/year or $6.99/month to gain access to this great community and unmatched source of information not found anywhere else on the web. We are also a great resource for non biplane users, since many GA aircraft are built the same way (fabric and tube construction). Annual membership also comes with two BiplaneForum.com decals.

My tach drive began leaking a couple of weeks ago. I can live with it for now as the leak is very slight. But eventually it will need some work. I've heard that it is tough to replace. Has anyone tried? Also an hour of searching has yielded the following parts (Lycoming io-360 on a Pitts):

531378 OIL TACH DRIVE SEAL

and

641533 TACH DRIVE SEAL

I'm assuming the second is correct because its more expensive :)

Thanks for any help
