--> Engines-List message posted by: "Randy L. Thwing" <n4546v@mindspring.com>
Hello Listers:
We are about to assemble a Continental O-200A (major overhaul) and were
wondering what modern sealant is recommended for the front crankshaft seal.
One engine builder has said Permatex 97 is what he uses. This looks fine
but appears to be a type of contact cement. This same builder also says he
uses Locktite 515 to join the case halves and no longer uses silk thread.
Any input would be appreciated. We could, of course, use what is mentioned
in the Continental overhaul manual, but we were hoping that in the last 65
years, something "slightly" better may have been developed, "Halomar" etc.
Thanks&Regards,
Randy L. Thwing,. Las Vegas

I used Hylomar from Permatex with silk thread on a Continental about 11 years ago,
still pretty tight at 800 hours.

I think that there are two flywheel pulley diameters for the 4 cyl Lyc, does anyone
know what they are?
TIA,
