Open side faces in, and install flush with the housing. Do not push it all the way in. Dennis
-----Original Message----- From: Vanagon Mailing List [mailto:vanagon@GERRY.VANAGON.COM] On Behalf Of Edward Maglott Sent: Tuesday, June 10, 2003 9:38 PM To: vanagon@GERRY.VANAGON.COM Subject: Torque Converter Oil Seal Still working on my AT rebuild. I am installing the torque converter oil seal in the final drive housing. Since it has been over 24 house\rs since I removed it, I have forgotten which way it goes in. Open side of seal toward final drive or toward converter? And Bentley says to dip it in ATF and push it as far as it will go. But it seems like I remember some discussion on this topic. Something about all the way in vs. just so it is flush with the housing? Thanks for any input. Edward |
