M-18 front oil seal
Hey guys: It's been awhile I hope your all good. I dropped in to ask your opinion on the above mentioned oil seal. My seal is leaking so I removed the PTO to start the repair. Before disassembly I watched a video on YouTube that showed the seal should be installed about 3/32 in from the surface, mine was sitting about a inch in. How is that possible? Is there a lip to keep the seal from falling to the inside of the engine? Was it installed incorrectly or did it "walk" itself deeper into the casting? How do you prevent that from happening?
