Hi Noisy....Its very easy to do.
1..........Remove bolts from the clutch cover and remove cover and drive plate
2..........Remove bolts from flywheel and remove flywheel...remember flywheel is heavy so watch your fingers
3.........Drain engine oil
4.........note location of the seal in reference to the housing..depth it is fitted to,recessed into the housing
5........prize out the seal CAREFULLY with a very small screwdriver or angled scribe.
6........Thoroughly clean out the recess in the seal housing( i used brake cleaner on a cloth)
7........NEW SEAL IS FITTED DRY.......Align the new seal over the rear of the crank taking care not to damage the inside face of the seal. . I cut an empty plastic milk container and made a guide which fitted snuggly over the crankshaft.
8.......Gently push the seal into the housing equally so the seal sits square.Push into the housing to the same depth as the old one was.
9.......Check that the seal is sitting squre,check depth is equal all of the way round the seal
10......remove plastic container guide
11......refit flywheel and bolts
12......refit clutch plate,cover and bolts
13......Refill engine oil

Mr Noisy
Coming in your ears.
Plenty of gunge in there pal!
I love a good clean and scrub job, gradually working throughthe whole car stripping down and rebuilding the lot, the gearbox is the only thing I don't fancy tackling tbh.
Anyway yeah it'll all be minted up before it goes back together!
Once the transfer box is scrubbed up and the gearbox recon'd it'll be mint underneath, leaving me with just the boot floor and my biggest ambition, overhauling the engine.
Yummm, clean internals

WELL
when I got in there, the side seals looked a bit shaky (some missing) so I decided to take the cap off and replace them.
They're arriving today so will throw them in tonight.
Hoping to have it back together, clutch on and waiting for gearbox by the end of the night.
Should be fine

I'm not too sure that I have the confidence to tackle this!!!!!
Is there anyone local (Newcastle) who would care to give me a hand with this for beer and more beer tokens as well as complementary pie and chips
are you sure you really need to even new one may leak a little ,but it needs engine or gear box out and flywheel removing
