Re: Leaking rear main seal-"Sneaky Pete" tool

I replaced the main and rod bearings last year and also the lower part of the rear seal since at the time I didn't have a tool to remove the upper portion and figured the seal was OK since it didn't leak very much. I hade loosened all of the main bolts in an attempt to get the crank a bit lower but it didn't seem to helps so I left the upper portion of the seal alone. I did use the "T" cotter pin method to roll out the old bearings though and it worked great.I guess I will the Sneaky Pete a try and see how it goes.
