Hi all,

when I started this project, I also planned to replace all the oil seals.

The issue I have is that I simply cannot succeed to remove them, neither the crank seal nor the intermediate one.
After 25 years they must be stuck in there, and I do not want to scratch the surface.

Isn't that easier if I remove the whole sealing flange?

Is there anything preventing me to unbolt that sealing flange and remove those seals? In doing that I can also replace that sealing ring.

I found an article in the FAQ with a picture, if you click this link and search for :Location of New Seal, you will see what I mean.

Thank you!
Alessandro
