Re: Clutch Shaft Seal Removal Posted by vvack0matic [Email] (#1443) [Profile/Gallery] (more from vvack0matic) on Sat, 7 Nov 2009 19:38:38 In Reply to: Clutch Shaft Seal Removal, Scott Shure, Sat, 7 Nov 2009 08:42:41 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
mine was so bad upon removal the tin you gripped with the pliers had totally tore off leaving the remnants of the seal still in the hole.
ended up hitting up the saab net archives and found someone had suggested using a mini blow torch (as they said, melt the rubber off the seal and in 50 sec. it will pop right out with a screw driver)
sounds good but didnt quite work that well. 10 minutes with a hand held blowtorch directly on the seal it slowly started to move with a screw driver until it came out.
NEVER again will i mess with that seal unless there is an extreem leak comming from it.
