    Crankshaft/Camshaft Seal Replacement DIY

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    Hello Everyone,
    I've read the DIY' for the timing belt replacement, but can't seem to find a Crankshaft/camshaft seal DIY. Can someone please point me in the rite direction.
    I just bought the ECS Tuning Ultimate Plus kit that comes with the Crankshaft and Camshaft Seals. What did you guys use to take out the old ones? What did you guys use to drive in the new ones?
    I would appreciate your help and input.
    Thanks

    No videos from YouTube, or edge tuning? You can also ask an expert via email at Pelican parts.com

    I plan on getting a similar kit, one with the Gates Racing belt. I'll probably never have to change the timing belt again as long as I own the car considering I won't actually be racing.

    Lol! I thought about that one, and was gonna get it, but I needed that extra money for a new coolant expansion tank. Mines cracked and leaking. If not I probably would have gone for the Gates timing belt.

    A place between here and there

    Don't touch that seal unless it's leaking. I never order tb kits, but only parts I need. Kits come with a lot of parts that you don't need, like cam seals. Same thing. Don't replace it unless it's leaking.

    Pro tip: Put loctite on those 4 crank damper bolts. New ones are guarantee to back out. Old ones, like the ones still on your car, has years of slight rust that act like loctite. lol
    I hate it when my car acts like a little bitch, treating me like a bitch
