Just got the beast running. I've spent the last several months putting in a "runs great" '71 engine w/ 4 spd and manual xfer in my '70 cruiser. I hadn't really worked on anything since my VW back in the '70s, so this has really been an educational experience.
But, when I hit the road with it oil came out the front end. Looks like the seal behind the pulley. Several threads caution me to wipe and look carefully, that if it is the front seal it really isn't a big deal, just time and patience. I can buy that, but that damn pulley has me woried.
My old engine's fell off, and I found that there's no 'keeper' of any kind, just a key. So,
How the heck do I get it off, and what's the best way to get it back on and make sure it stays on? One thread said something about dry ice?
