| RE: rear main seal leak |

| since the rear main seal is easier to deal with start there. yes rubber is better than the rope seal. if you switch over there is a pin you need to remove to put the rubber seal in. also dont install the rubber seal flush with the cap edge. you want about 1/8 to 1/4" sticking up. it will seal better. remember to put a little silicon on the seal edges as well asat the main caps after you torque them in place. if you still have the leak then you need to pull the motor to replace the galley plugs. dont forget to put a little sealer on them before you install them. i use permatex #2. it is non-hardening and works quite well. |
