Hi all, been having some trouble with my 199a 350 1978. I've bought a new set of oil seals, but I'm sure which way to fit them in.

I've bought the four single types from In Motion.

Would someone be so good as to clear up this for me?

Many thanks,

They go in the housing back to back - ie: the 'open' side of the seals face outwards and the solid face of the seals sit against each other on the inside.

Don't forget the large O ring that fits in the housing before you refit it.

Thanks Woody. I'm still not 100% sure. The seal has a lip one side, and an open side where you can see the metal spiral. Do you mean spiral-lip-lip-spiral?

If that makes sense!

hi as woody said they go back to back the open ends should be facing out on both sides. the sides with the size of the seal is the side that gose back to back with the other.

Thanks!

I'll let you know how I get on!
