Where to find NC35 oil pan gasket?

Post by tailongwan » Sat Feb 12, 2022 6:06 pm

Hi all,

Sharing some pictures on new task this week end: I decided to chase the oil leak I have for a few months now.

So I will change the water pump o-ring, the shift cover gasket (we can see oil drop) and a bunch of oil seal a bit everywhere... Ordered already on CMSNL ;-)

Image

However, I think it should be good also to change the oil pan gasket, because I am not sure it is completely efficient... However impossible to find a new one to buy :(

Any idea where I can find a suitable oil pan gasket for NC35? I found "RRP" in UK, but they seem closed? Gasketguru.co.uk seems out of stock :( :(

Many thanks for your help

If you've managed to remove the gasket in one piece, just buy a sheet of gasket paper and make one.

Yep, you are probably right, good time to learn how to design it!

Might be worth contacting Andrew Pocock, who has taken over NC35 parts supply from Graeme France. Number 07522 166832. Or via the GFRacing website. He might have some bright ideas.

Thanks all,
I contacted Andrew ansd has a set of gaskets available ( since i already bought shifter, generator, clutch cover gaskets, i will try first to find sump gasket itself.

Rick Oliver has pretty much retired from the 400 'scene' (for want of a better word). I'll be interested to know if he's still selling bits.

Of course: I am just near Paris (France), and I am fond of 400cc since 1995, when I got my licence for motorbike...
