I got a new Corteco seal and the installation instructions say that both the installation surface and the PTFE seal lip are to be completely Dry (see photos). It is obvious the installation surface is the Crankshaft and the PTFE (which is Teflon) surface is only on the inside of the seal. Below it also says to wait 2 hours so the PTFE seal lip can settle in the right position??

The Bentley manual says to lightly oil the Crankshaft. So has anyone experienced this??
