Another thing I do when installing crankseals, I use the cellophane window cut from a stihl chain box to make a tube, after coating the inner seal lip with rubber grease, I then insert the tube in the seal, place the tube down over the bearing inner race then just slide the seal down the tube and tap the seal into the crankcase, this way, the seal inner lip and spring do not fold back when going over the bearing inner race, makes the whole job a lot easier!
