Oh wise list, I'm changing the front oil seal on my 74 MkIV. There is a small grove around the crank pulley in the middle of the sealing surface. Is this normal, or is it a sign of excessive wear? At

One last idea... I have never tried this, but a friend of mine swears by this technique for removing broken cylinder head studs. It does require access to an arc welder. As best as I can summarize, h

FWIW, the pump I bought last Sept from Moss for my '72 Mk IV does have a priming lever. I don't know if it'll fit a '63, however. Greg

It looks like the front oil seal on my 72 MkIV is leaking. Since I'm changing the water pump, and have the radiator, etc. removed, I thought this was a good time to change the seal. Before I start br
