    If you're talking a honda 200...did you use the same gasket when you reinstalled the cdi.

    if you're careful with your gasket sealer, it will work. you just don't want to use a TON...it breaks off, flats around, and clogs all sorts of holes up.

    the CDI is not supposed to be leaking oil, that means the cam ceal from the CDI or the "o-ring" aound the cdi housing is leaking. you need to see which one it is and fix it.

    Your biggest mistake was to bring so many tools....

    Honda's don't need much
    All our government does is distract us while they steal from us, misspend our tax $ and ruin our country

    I've learned the hard way to keep the good tools in the garage and pack the cheap chinese jobbers for out on the trails. and wearin a backpack is just a big PITA most times. unless it's filled with beer!

    If its leaking from the back plate and not the cover then the seal doesn't have any effect.
    The person who says it cannot be done should not interrupt the person who is doing it.
