Super thin coat so as not to mess w/tolerances as much as possible...?
Also, I'm assuming that doing this slightly amends the assembly procedure and timing as the crank has to be OUT of the case in order to apply the 1211 in the nose bearing area, THEN the crank goes in the case, THEN you apply the perimeter & main bearing web sealant, THEN you mate the case halves... All of which adds an extra step or 2 during the scramble to mate the case halves before the sealant goes off - is that correct? Tom

My heart sank as I read this- I buttoned up my case 3 hours ago and applied the white 1211 over the entire nose bearing O-ring in a mis- interpretation of the diagram/instructions in Henry’s kit.
Henry- am I screwed? Do I need to undo the case and redo the #8 situation, or will the 1211 be ok on the o-§ring?
