#1 Rear main oil seal removal, how?
levey Posted on: 2013/8/27 8:31
What is the best way to remove the rear main oil seal without dropping the sump? Gearbox etc is off but engine still in car.
Can't remember how I did it 16 years ago.

Cheers, Levey.

The screwdriver method worked well thanks Datman :)
Bag of flour didn't do much but make a mess Mik.

Sprinkle of pepper, and when you sneeze grab it with a pair of tweezers.
