I’m sure this must have been answered before but can’t find it...so apologies if it has.....
I’m replacing rear main oil seal on 12J 2.5NA. Don’t have the LR tool but I’m using a suitable size drift to press the new seal into the flywheel housing. My question is how far does it go in? Flush with the housing? All the way until it bottoms out?
The wear mark on the crankshaft journal is about 1/3 of the way across from the rear journal face.
I’m well aware of the process for fitting PTFE seal...just don’t know how far it needs to in.
Any advice gratefully received
Thanks!
Andy
