Picked up a 1996 GTI that had been sitting for year. Need some advice on bottom end...
-Replaced all fuel lines/filters and deleted fuel selector valve.
-Discovered broke ring on piston from a prior rebuild, have exchange pistons/cylinders ordered.
-Poured diesel fuel into crankshaft/rod area
Over couple days a small amount of diesel leaked out from under the flywheel. I'm guessing a outer crankshaft seal replacement is in order. Whats thoughts about this. Really wish would have bought a rebuilt motor at this point.... if have to put a rebuilt crankshaft in, it would have been cheaper to do just that. Thanks
