[QUOTE="Stringer, post: 178726, member: 2086"] Hey guys. Still trying to figure out this powervalve crap. No luck yet. I figured since I got the right engine cover off id go ahead and replace crank seal since I ordered it early on. When I got down to it, it had oil seepage at the bottom of the seal that was golden in color, and smelled like it had gas in it. This has got to be from the combustion chamber, as my tranny fluid is red and does not smell of gas. Would this indicate a leaking seal? I got the whole area cleaned out after I drilled the old seal to remove it. Got the shavings out and used carb cleaner to get everything super clean. Now its clean and dry. What should I do before putting in the new crank seal? Nothing in manual about this. Thanks! [/QUOTE]
