Re: Loud Whistle From 94 Carburetor

Great information, suspect base gasket as it's not in pristine condition,
That's an easy solution to try initially.
I'll update.

Well I got the seal and bushing out of my '52 Customline.

I assumed there would be a...

Re: Transmission Extension Tube Removal

Re: Transmission Extension Tube Removal

Re: Transmission Extension Tube Removal

You don't say whether you removed the extension tube.
I'm hoping to do that instead of removing the whole transmission.

Re: Transmission Output Shaft Seal Removal

Looked at those, don't see how it would work for this application, due to the spline protruding out from the center of the seal.

Re: Transmission Output Shaft Seal Removal

Gotta tell ya, the existing seal is far more substantial than the replacement seal.
All these suggestions would work great, I'm sure, if I were removing the new seal I have as a replacement.

Re: Transmission Output Shaft Seal Removal

Part of my problem is I'm laying on the floor working "overhead".
Not the best situation for leverage and usable swing of a hammer, particularly one of sufficient weight.

Re: Transmission Output Shaft Seal Removal

Re: Transmission Output Shaft Seal Removal

My existing seal doesn't have a flange so although this sounds like a good process, it won't work for me. I apprciate the suggestion.

Re: Transmission Output Shaft Seal Removal

By the way, do I need to be concerned about how deeply I drive the screw in?
I don't want to mar the bushing inside.
