: Hello. I have a 67 A100 with a 225 /6. I
: removed
: the stock rope seal and installed a rubber one
: twice now per Dougs instructions. The rear seal
: still leaks. I'm convinced it is because my
: crank
: has factory nerrling to help keep the the rope
: seal lubed. The nerrling is very deeply
: machined.
: I would like to install a rope seal without
: dropping the crank. Has anyone used a sneaky
: pete
: on a /6 with success??

: Thanks

: I've never had a problem with the neoprene
: seal. Only two things I can think of: The
: lip seal is facing the wrong direction(most
: likely), or, and this is a long shot, it is
: a marine crankshaft made to rotate opposite
: direction, so knurling is in the wrong
: direction.
