cxn613 Posted November 2, 2021 Share Posted November 2, 2021 In the process of installing a new clutch and rear main seal. With that being said, I have oil residue around the flywheel housing. Is there any suprises to removing it to reseal? Looks like remove oil pan, support rear of engine, remove starter and rear motor mounts and then remove housing? Does it seal with a gasket or gasket maker? Thanks in advance Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/68631-mp8-flywheel-housing/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vmac3 Posted November 3, 2021 Share Posted November 3, 2021 The housing is resealed with silicone. Dont forget to make sure that the upper timing cover is flat with the cylinder head when you reinstall it. Otherwise you will create another oil leak. As for the job, it is pretty straight forward.
