Ivan's 67

I finally got round to sorting out the few things that needed doing on Ivan's 67 . It had been leaking from the crankshaft oil seal for some time , and I had been building up to doing it . The flywheel is wedgemated on this engine , so I had waited for a puller I had ordered to arrive , to help get the flywheel off . I am also changing away from the yellow CB Performance mounts I had been using , back to genuine VW ' Grey ' heavy duty rubber mounts . I have managed to secure a few sets of these , and only started using the CB mounts when I origionally ran out of genuine ' Grey ' ones .

The oil cooler had also been weeping for a while , I fitted new seals last time I had the engine out , but somethings not right and I intend to find out what's going on .
