520h round disc chattering

Recommended Posts

My 520 has a round disc that is above the clutch. It is chattering and has some oil  coming out of it. I just noticed it today when I was taking off the snow blower. Is this normal it is making more noise then it id in the past. 

 

Thanks for any help

looks like I figured out that it is a welch plug.

could not find out why or what caused it to come lose or if I can just replace it or does the cam rub on it?

I don't know how to stake it into place, but that's very important.  Cam end play has a tolerance ?on 20hp. I wouldn't think the cam "bumps" on it. Worst case it plug falls out undetected, oil slings out too much, and ruined an engine. 

 

Seems there was a post on the plugs sometime back and book doesn't cover removal or replacement.

Thanks for the response. I had found that post last night that is how I figured out what it was.

I can't believe more people have not this problem. I have not seen a post that the cam was affected.
