Re: Rear Main seal


Merl
 

Can't help you with the seal on a 226, but I did the neoprene rear seal
on my L-134 about two months ago. Before I did it I was told that it
probably wouldn't work if the crank or rear main bearing was overly worn,
and if it did it'd only work for a "little while". I don't put a lot of
miles on it, but after 200 miles or so if its leaking at all its so
little that I can live with it.

Tech team,

Need some wrenching help. Has anyone broken the code on effectively installing the early series 6-226 (54-60?) rear main seal?

So far we have tried installing the lovely ropes twice, and have tried a late series neoprene seal kit (which is designed to work if you have installed a crank from a 230).

Outback Benjie, you there?

If you have done this, and your beloved does not lose her vital fluids after operation, please share with me your secret.

Frank, you haven't snuck a sleeping bag out to the garage yet have you? Just checking.

Respectfully, Dan
