I'm doing the clutch on my '80 AirCooled Westy, and I have a few
questions.  It seems the procedure is about the same for the
water-cooled engine.  There is reference to an O ring that goes
somewhere, but I didn't find one when I took the flywheel off, and can't
really see where a new one would go.  I have a few O rings on hand that
came from a complete engine gasket set:  One big beefy one that is
almost as big as the oil seal and two smaller ones that look like they
might either go inside the end of the fly wheel or somewhere in that
area.  Bentley and Haynes show pictures of the O ring but not in enough
detail to really see where it goes.
Any help out there?
