Loopers,

Rear main on the Eldo is losing a bit of oil, and I can't seem to find the
time to pull the bike apart to replace it. A friend suggested adding an
ounce of something to the crankcase that swells the seals a bit to stop the
leak.

Anyone ever try this? Any downside? How much should I add if it's the
right thing to do? How much longer would I be able to procrastinate doing
the right thing?

Thanks much.
