John, you don’t tap the carbon seal into anything!

Joe, thanks – I have been contacted by Mike Glen from my local area and he gave me some names and #s

Steve, that carbon seal scares me? What would be a safe way to tap it in? Do the 2 recesses go down? Should I lube it (saw perm aviation sealant on you tube)

thanks

 

 

The spring under the point cam presses it to the edge of the top bearing.  The “O” ring spins with the crankshaft and the carbon seal.  Look it over close you will see how it is supposed to work.
