Breathing vapor from fowelette and
prolonged contact with skin can
cause severe personal injury. Be sure area
is
well- ven fila fed.
Lubricate the lips
of
the replacement seal with a light
coating of grease before installing the rear bearing
plate or gear cover. This provides initial lubrication
until engine oil reaches the seal. Refer to Crankshaft
in this section for the rear bearing plate installation
procedures. Refer to Gear Cover in this section for
the gear cover installation procedures.
Use the combination main and cam bearing driver
and a press to install the front bearing. Push in the
bearing to the depth allowed by the flange on the
driver. Wipe
off
any
excess Locktite and allow one
hour for hardening at room temperature.
Engines shipped from the factory have separate thrust washers
and main bearings for both front and rear
of
engine. Front bearing
replacement is one piece bearing (with attached thrust washer) as
shown in Figure
9-33.
Do
not add an additional thrust washer to
this front bearing.

Use an oil seal guide and driver to press or drive the
rear seal into the rear bearing plate until it bottoms
against the shoulder of the plate (see Figure 9-34).
