Next, I installed the seal. I was able to start it with hard finger pressure, but it took some soft hammer taps.

The bearing is a tight fit in the flywheel.

I left the bearing sticking out a bit more than the recess in the end of the crank. I figured that it would press in as required when I bolted the flywheel on.

Then the felt washer, dampened with engine oil, as per the factory repair manual.

The felt washer in place. Note the marks on the flywheel from the old bolts when I made them snug enough for setting the axial play.

I decided to see if I could make my uncooperative repro door handles work. Lots of measuring and thinking.

On the left handle, the out hole was a bit small.

I used a "big" drum sander on my Dremel to open up the hole a bit.

Then I used a hand file to knock off the sharp edge at the inside end of the main cylinder, and take just a little off the inner 1/8 inch of the cylinder.

The cylinder fit OK, but the recess on the inner end of the handle was too deep by about .01 inch, so the cam was binding.

On the right handle, the entire opening for the cylinder was too tight. I used the small drum sander to open it up a bit.
