DJ194950 Posted April 18, 2023 Report Share Posted April 18, 2023 Can we keep it going for a while at least with "the best sealers to use?". Maybe which paint is the best on a timing chain cover-?. Colors that are original? Good for a page or two?. DJ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm more worried about the authors response. 7-8 years ago I went to a psychiatrist thinking I may be getting the old timers disease. I could not remember my phone # ..... Took a few years, I have a clear memory now. When @MarcDeSoto talks about such stupid things as a seal .... I'm not against them .... just wish I could be there & give them a hug. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarcDeSoto Posted April 19, 2023 Author Report Share Posted April 19, 2023 Actually, I was thinking of ending this thread, but if the people demand it, I am willing to continue. I realize I'm providing entertainment here, so I did think of something more. Today I put the plate back on, and the camshaft sprocket and chain. I put the timing cover on loosely because I still have to center it on crankshaft hub. I watched Keith's video of him installing his hub and vibration damper assy. Boy he sure makes it look easy! I thought you would need some kind of fancy hub installer to do that. Maybe you do on my 48 DeSoto. All Keith used was a leather mallet which got the hub assy in far enough so that his hub nut could finish the installation. I wonder if I can do that to mine. Mine doesn't seem to want to go in that far. But I'll try again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I fabricated a centering tool out of PVC plastic pipe, worked great, no leak after two years. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
