I have oil leaking out my clutch cable from the gearbox, if the breather was blocked would this explain the leak or would it be more likely a crank shaft seal, I drained the oil from the gearbox to see if there was any oil leaking from the engine to gearbox, but no the correct amount of oil was drained out. Anybody had any problems like this
Cheers TP

:idea: Could you try fitting an O ring to the bottom of the cable as it enters the primary - if it doesn't have one already or it is faulty.

Later cables leak around the crimp at the primary fitting to cable outer.
They have an O ring as standard.
