Shoebox inside please
I need to change out the oil seal in the timing cover for the opti . Can you tell me how to do this It looks like it can be done without removing the timing cover.
Thanks

You should be able to remove the old one with a screw driver or pick, then oil the new one and tap it in with a mallet.

Use a piece of wood or something to even distribute the load on seal to push it in evenly.

Very doable without the timing cover off.
Took care of that a few weeks back.
Took me longer to find a store with 93 gasket sets in stock than to install it LOL

If you need help from Shoebox, use a PM or e-mail. Don't use the tech forums to page people.
