[Mg-t] TD Engine Pull

You can get good results with a process / procedure using JB Weld to build the worn area up to match the Archimedes screw.

  If the leak is really bad, it indicates probable wear on the scroll and the
little shield.
  If one can tolerate quarter to half-dollar drip spots, the original seal
will do.
  In our club, six or eight owners have tried the improved seal. Half are
happy and half are not. I used the original seal type, and have no regrets.

Finally getting around to the long-overdue task for replacing the rear main
on the '52TD.  What is the consensus of the list as far as the best remedy
for this repair/replacement?  I would rather not have to grind the crank to
fit some aftermarket product.  Just going to do the seals and the top-end is
tight and there are no other real issues here.

Also, as this is my first MGT engine job where is the best resource,
on-line, to go to for soup-to-nuts guidance?

Many thanks,
Bill
