Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

6 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I drilled holes in it and put in self taping screws but still can't pull it out. I plan on replacing the case bolts and have loosed the two closest to the RMS. Do I need to loosed the other at the same time.

POST 2Original post

saw this on the 993 forum... https://rennlist.com/forums/993-foru...-w-pics-9.html

POST 3Original post

be careful! you dont want to scar that crank it will leak then. I tapped mine in a TAD to break it loose. this also deformed it a bit and allowed me to remove it. I drilled the hole and used a drywall screw to grab mine. That pix scares the crap out of me even as innocent as it seems to be..

POST 4Original post

wow @ pic - supe close to having a permenant leak point!!! Kyle is right, tap one side in a little

POST 5 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I got it by deforming it. The trick with the self tapping screws didn't work for me.

POST 6 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Just to let people know... The RMS from Pelican Parts comes with a tool to help install the RMS and makes it quite simple. You still need to make sure your depth is even but there is no issue starting the seal squarely.

This is a source reference. Confirm exact model applicability in the original material.
