Do I have to remove the stator to put a seal in that side ? I was hoping not to mess with the timing, but near as I can tell, I am going to have to remove the stator. Before I did, I thought I better ask.
Also, anything special I need to do for these to re-seal the case ? Just threeBond on the halves, put the new seals in and I am done ?
Thanks,
Kevin

Kevin, I might suggest that you get a Service or Technical Manual for your serial number Spitfire, It will help you immensely & help you understand the correct way to repair your sled.

Yes, the stator is in the way, but just mark it's position with a sharpie before you remove it. Some of the Kawasakis actually have a fixed-position stator, but I'm not sure about that one.
