Is the old seal a 2 piece
or 1 piece seal? If it is 2 piece, you can bend up a cotter key, insert it into
the oil hole in the crank journal and turn the engine over by hand. The cotter
key will push the old seal out. Be sure and stagger the ends of the new seal so
that they do NOT align with the parting lines of the main
cap.

Subject: IML: '66 Imp Coupe Rear Main
Seal
Hey all. Getting ready to fix a major oil leak that I HOPE is
the rear main seal and nothing more serious.
Got my kit, got the car up
and will be doing this in the next couple of days. Does anyone have any tips I
should know about? Thanks!
