Installing the crankshaft sealing ring
If any small edges or burrs are found on the chamfer of the crankshaft flange,
carefully remove them with an oilstone. Then, carefully clean the crankshaft
journal and crankcase bore using solvent naphtha or acetone and a clean lint -
free cloth.
Never use an abrasive or polishing cloth or brushes with metal bristles on the sealing
surface of the crankshaft flange. Only use a special metal-polishing pad to remove
corrosion on the crankshaft flange. Then clean the crankshaft flange carefully using
acetone or solvent naphtha.
Unscrew the press-in tool (Porsche spare part no.: 9699/3) (Figure 1.6.3.5).
Slide the sealing ring with red assembly protection onto the base plate. Grease
the outside of the sealing ring (Figure 1.6.3.6 and Figure 1.6.3.7).
