Amazing Quality ndk oil seals
Big price cuts.Richpin’s Auto Care shows you how to replace the cam
over seal on a GM 3.1L V6 engine. Once the vehicle is raised and is
safely supported by jackstands, you’ll be taken through the first step
which involves removing the serpentine belt from the engine. After the
belt is removed, the video shows you how to remove the splash shield in
the wheel next to the engine, using the proper tool. Next you’ll be
removing the crank pulley using a pulley remover, allowing you to get
access to remove the seal. Richpin shows you how to remove the old seal
using a special tool or screwdriver, and install the new seal in it’s
place. The remaining replacement steps are the reversal of removal.Amazing Quality ndk oil seals Big price cuts.
Step 1 – Look in the right place. My engine was a mess anyhow – and it forced the camera to take a blurry picture.Look down onto the filter and cooler flange. This is on the front center of the motor. The A/C compressor is to the left, and the Distributor cap is to the right. My car has an aftermarket oil pressure gauge/sender – that’s the blue wire – your car won’t have this so don’t look for it.Amazing Quality ndk oil seals Big price cuts.
Step 2 – Jack up your car to change the oil. Replacement of the cooler seal requires you to remove your filter, so why not just do it all at once.Hmmm, tasty German filter.. The cap is my filter wrench.
Step 3 – Look at where the filter screws onto.
Step 4- Remove the nut (27mm or 1-1/6″)
Step 5 – Unhook top coolant hose from bracket (no tools needed)
Step 6 – PUSH down on the cooler – with even pressure on both sides. If you push too hard on one side, its going to get caught on the threads of the filter mount. This is ok. Just push it back up a little and try again. Don’t force it, wiggle back and forth if needed. The dipstick and funnel (orange) are in the center left of the picture.Amazing Quality ndk oil seals Big price cuts.
NOTE: Two other ways to remove the cooler are:
1 – Drain cooling system and unhook hoses form cooler. This is an unnecessary step.
2 – Using needle nose pliers style vice grips, grab and spin the center shaft (where the filter screws onto). And unscrew and remove it. This is not a bad idea, and it does make the job a little easier – but I did not find the need to do this.Point and laugh at the old seal. Use your small flat screwdriver or pick to carefully remove the stuck seal.Yea, this was long overdue. I was lucky, and my seal just leaked – it never got to the point where it blew out.
Step 7 – Carefully install the new seal – and center it onto the cooler. Use no sealants or RTV!
Step 8 – Install the cooler and reinstall the lower 27mm nut you took off. Torque the cooler nut to 18 Ft/Lbs. DOUBLE CHECK BEFORE TORQUE THE NUT THAT THE COOLER SEAL IS NOT SHIFTED OR PINCHED.
Step 9 – Start car once refilled with oil and a new filter has been installed.. Check for leaks!Amazing Quality ndk oil seals Big price cuts.
