Hi All,
Hopefully someone has had experience with this problem: I have tried three times to fix the leak from the rear crankshaft seal on my 1954 L15 but without success. The first time I used a rope type seal. The last time was with the newer rubber split seal but still it leaked badly. I am about to try again with a new split seal. Is there anything I have to be careful about when fitting the seal? I have previously used plenty of sealant as an extra precaution. I am very frustrated with taking the engine out all the time and would appreciate any tips to solve this problem.
Thanks in advance,
Rod (carpetsnake)
