    HELP cant get crank shaft seal out

    I managed to get the crankcase to split but now am having a heck of a time removing the crank, what appears to be an oil seal is stuck and i cant get it free, I am afraid to use brute force as the seal seems to be made of a very soft metal and will bend even with a rubber mallet, PLEASE how do I get this out???

    Grab the seal with pliers and lever it loose. You would be foolish to not replace it anyway.

      Yep, plan on replacing it. Even if you could get it out in good shape, it will never seal properly again.
