Re: How to change gasket: Timing cover I6-250
I use a thin coating on the crankshaft seal in case of abnormality. Yes it's a tight fit but I always do this on all seals. Even rear transmission seal. Force of habit.
The reason I mentioned to snug (finger tight) the cover bolts all the way around before tightening to spec is that I once had a crankshaft seal that wasn't centered on the crankshaft and it leaked on me.
