I pulled the transmission on my '88 today to fix a leaking rear main seal. In the Bentley, page 13.41, and O-ring is shown, installed with flywheel after the seal. Mine did not have this... should it? I see the o-ring listed at Bowwow, so I wonder why they didn't sell me one with the seal...? I've already put in the new seal - the old one looked ok, but was a bit stiff, and came out much easier than expected (almost fell out...) Of course the clutch disc is oil-soaked :-( , but has lots of thickness left, so I may try degreasing & re-installing. (the clutch was not slipping, just starting to shudder the last month or so.) -- Shawn Wright http://Zuiko.sls.bc.ca/swright '88 Westy 375k '85 Jetta D 263k '85 Jetta TD 482k (retired) ~This message sent by Pegasus Mail, the safe E-Mail alternative~ "Friends don't let friends use Outlook"
