CrankShaft Seal/Cam Shaft Seal

Post by AMACHA »

Turns out it wasnt just the rocker cover gaskets leaking was also the crankshaft seal so im changing the cam seals to.

im helping the mechanic and its going to come up to 280 bux to change the camshaft seals and crankshaft seal we decided so yeh got it pretty cheap 280 bux wish me luck but while the timing belt and also eveyrthing is off should anything else be done?ay other seal?

its done 148 000 km and the timing belt was changed 20 000 km ago however the previous mechanic with the previous owner didnt change the came or crank seals when the timing belt was changed.

So far it has:
New OXygen Sensor
New heavy Duty Clutch
Rocker cover gaskets changed
sparks changed
fuel filter change
spark leads changed

And so the 4 cam seals im cahnging and also the crankshaft seal, can anyone else think of anything while im back there?

It's a pity you didn't do the gearbox side crank seal when you were doing the clutch. Its easy enough but its another 'box out job :roll:
