MikeT73 Posted April 12, 2000 Share #1 Posted April 12, 2000 Is this a "garage mechanic job" or should I have a pro do it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyle Posted April 15, 2000 Share #2 Posted April 15, 2000 I gotta say, it's probably a bigger job than you want. AFAIK, you have to remove the crankshaft, which requires removing the engine... this is one of those things that always seems to lead to a full rebuild and/or different engine. Is your PCV system working properly? A clogged PCV valve can cause crankcase pressure to build up, causing oil leaks. (found that out the hard way after plugging my PCV on purpose, ) Kyle ------------------ Kyle Hagemann Moderator, 240Z list '69 2000 Roadster '71 PL521 Pickup '72 240Z Hotrod Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Coffey Posted April 21, 2000 Share #4 Posted April 21, 2000 I'm not sure ('cuz I haven't done it myself) but I don't think you have to remove the crank. I think the flywheel has to come off and you might have to remove the last bearing cap, but I think the seal fits over the end of the crank.When all else fails, RTFM!----------------------------John Coffeyjohncof@veriomail.com[This message has been edited by John Coffey (edited 04-20-2000).] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
