Re: Where and how to check for oil leaks? 700 1986

No, the seal is not felt. The seal is a miniture version of the seals used on the crankshaft, intermediate shaft, and camshaft. It is neoprene and even has the circular coil spring to keep tension on the neoprene to metal shaft surface. The last felt seal on a Volv I dealt with was the front crankshaft seal on my 1961 PV 544. Order the seal from a Honda lawnmower shop, and you will be all set. It is sometimes very tough to get the pin out of the drive dog. I am very persuasive at this, and I have had trouble with one. I think I have had at least six apart.
