Replacing crank seals - needs?

MrIQR · Dec 26, 2016

Going to be tearing my 15' down for crank seal and Pistons next week.

Never tore one of these a part before.

Other then top end gaskets/orings, injector orings, crank seals, Is there any misc gaskets I should order and replace?

i would split the cases to put the new seals in so you will need a tube of threebond.

MrIQR · Dec 26, 2016

Yep, will be splitting them.

Got 3bond on the shelf already.

Thoughts on applying it to the seals/grooves they sit in?

mtncat1 · Dec 26, 2016

i doesn't hurt . to coat the seals with threebond

That's what I'm thinking.

thoughts on the boysen turbo reeds?

Then I Just need to decide on what kind of Pistons to go with.

Have fun, just finished mine (an 09 Dragon 700) and need to drop it back into sled.

My gasket kit was missing a water pump gasket which sucked as I couldn't finish things as quickly as I wanted.

Good luck, a factory service manual and a camera to take lots of pics helps.

I realized today I forgot to order a water pump gasket.

I would recommend pressure checking the engine after rebuild, before installing it back in the sled
