Successfully reinstalled cam and crank shaft seals only to notice rattling sound upon acceleration, trouble starting (will turn over then 'waw waw' but eventually starts) and a continual leak. Thinking it is an improperly torqued crank sprocket bolt and/or oil pan. Starter symptoms? Any input appreciated. |

Under torqued and now moving. It will quickly wreck the woodruf key and the crank if not corrected. |
