Re: Rear main

[Richard Clough]

You need to drain the engine oil, water, and remove the engine from the car, turn it over, undo the sump and flywheel.  Loosen the main bearing caps and slip the rear seal out off the crank.   Reverse the proceedure to reassemble and make sure you torque the main bearing cap bolts and the flywheel bolts to their correct tension.   If you are going this far, I would slip in a new set of big end bearings and main (crankshaft) bearings while you are in there,  they are not that much extra (around $80) if you are doing the rest of the work yourself. ----- Original Message ----- From: Wayne To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Saturday, 3 June 2000 13:28 PM Subject: Rear main List,     Can anyone tell me how complex of a job it is to replace a rear main seal in an L20B. ??    Thanks --wayne --membersozdat------------------------------------------------------- OZDAT Mailing List Please Note:- Send (un)subscribe requests to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Send submissions to [EMAIL PROTECTED] No unauthorised redistribution of this email http://www.datascribe.com.au/ozdatonline/index.htm http://www.datascribe.com.au/ozdatonline/listindex.html http://www.mail-archive.com/membersozdat@datascribe.com.au/ --------------------------------------------------------------------- --membersozdat------------------------------------------------------- OZDAT Mailing List Please Note:- Send (un)subscribe requests to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Send submissions to [EMAIL PROTECTED] No unauthorised redistribution of this email http://www.datascribe.com.au/ozdatonline/index.htm http://www.datascribe.com.au/ozdatonline/listindex.html http://www.mail-archive.com/membersozdat@datascribe.com.au/ ---------------------------------------------------------------------
