Crankshaft oil seal rear
« on: April 06, 2024, 03:16:36 PM »
I installed the crankshaft, the camshaft and now I have to install the rear thrust washer, the rear crankshaft oil seal and then the flywheel.

Does the rear thrust washer need to be oiled before mounting the flywheel?
Is the crankshaft oil seal rear mounted dry or with a little oil, or does it soak in the oil?
Should the flywheel nose be lubricated before being inserted?
