I have taken off the rotor and it seems to be sitting out about 3mm from the face of engine
So i got a larger socket to push in the seal ...I pushed it in about 2 mm under the face of engine than i put all back together
Went for a short ride than i looked it was sitting out again arond 3 mm
Is this right for the crank seal to sit out of the face around 3 mm????
Anyway i ordered i new seal...Just a question what do you guys use around the seal????? Anything??? oil??? lock tite??? rtv silicon gasket maker????
Thanks in adavance
Can someone please answer this post???
When i fit this new seal do i push it in around 3 mm under the face of the engine than let the lock tite dry???
Or do i push seal in then turn the engine over (not start it) than the seal will sit around 2 mm outside of face of engine than let the lock tite dry????
Is it meant to fit flush to the face of engine in 2 mm or out 2 mm of face of engine
Please someone answer this as i am going to do this on the weekend
Thankyou in advance--------------
