oil pump oil seal

Post by salvatore »

The oil seal can be replaced from the outside without removing the entire pump

Hi
I have never heard of this seal failing. There is another seal on the top shaft that can leak and can be replaced. Do you have a problem with the seal?

Hello, I have no problem, I reconstructed the engine, new pistons I also checked the functionality of the valves and everything is ok, I bought the pump oring and the oil seal I thought of substitutions this, but the appearance is good then like you you suggest better not to replace. I ask you one thing, I also bought new aluminum valve washers, the original ones are Teflon and have no leaks, do you think it's better that you leave your originals?
