Image Unavailable, Please Login Hello I am currently replacing the clutch on my 360 Modena. I installed a release bearing seal, but I noticed that the seal is shorter than the outer circumference of the seal guide. I'm worried that fluid might leak from this gap. Is this ok? I checked with a shop I frequent, and they said that even the genuine seals vary between 10.5cm and 11cm. The seal I installed this time was 10.5cm.
That is not a seal and does not retain fluid. If the shop you frequent had the requisite knowledge to properly service your car they would know that.
Thank you. I'll replace the bearing without any worries. This time, I was replacing the clutch myself because there was a fluid leak around the bearing or support flange.
The seals are the rings on the outside of the one with a gap. The one you reference is a bearing surface only.
