Hello All ,
I am rebuilding a LI 150special engine to a GT 186 kit spec and not sure which oil seals to get Rolf or the new Viton ones ? any advice would be much appreciated.
Thanks.

Rolfe for me as I've had problems with viton due to the spring rolling over the lip on the drive side when fitting the crank ( although I think this was a dodgy batch to be fair)

I always use Rolf too. Some say the viton is better with modern fuel but I've never had a problem using Rolf seals. And I like to think of an Italian chap called Rolf.
