I am having a problem with my 127 that I was hoping someone could help me out with. Ultima ships these motors with the main seal set up for an open belt so I put in a new seal with the lip towards the primary it was ok for a while but soon I was gaining volume in My oil tank. I put in a new seal again and still pulling all the oil out of the primary, anyone run into this problem with an Ultima engine?? I run ATF in the primary as I have an S&S clutch. Having ATF mixed with Motor oil is not a good thing.

127
Well here it is , a couple of years since the engine issue, the ignition problem that plagued me for a long time is taken care of and I am about to embark on another short Wi riding season. For the last couple of years I have toyed w/ the idea of having the shtbk dyno tuned to get all I can out of it and considering all the issues I have had and the rum dums that built the bike, I can only assume that the tune could only help. Do I have to worry about blow'n da b'tch up, have the normal 127 lifter noise, other than that she seams to run pretty good. Thanks in advance.

I just had mine out last week and it still runs strong same noises as always not sure if it will just blow up one day or what guess I should get the oil sampled to see if everything is ok as I haven't done that yet I think I have about 25,000 on it.
