Crankshaft oil seal

Hey folks,

Looks like the crankshaft oil seals starting to go on my series 3 (petrol), is it a straight shove in (for want of a better expression!) or do I have to take the bottom of the engine off?

Cheers

Mike

Yes its a straight shove in. Remember the pulley is a left hand thread.
