Subject:      Crank Scoring / Flywheel seal
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1

OK, I think I'm on the downside of this clutch replacement adventure - got
what was left of the pilot bearing out yesterday.

Here is my next question - I've heard the warnings when removing the
flywheel seal (rear main seal) that you want to be sure not to score the
case. Well, I'm not sure if it was me (I tried to be very careful) or if it
was already there but I see where the surface the seal meets if scored
kinda gouged in one spot.
You can see it here: *http://tinyurl.com/dywks7q*
So what, if anything can/should I do about that?
Thanks,

Jeff
