seals
Davie, I agree. That's why I asked the question about the cam sprockets. Because I have just done the cam, front crank, and oil pump seals in my engine. The front crank seal is in the oil pump housing. The oil pump has this little o-ring in it but the main oil pump gasket is factory specified to be made with "fluid packing" (silicone). I loosened the cam sprocket bolts by doing it before I took off the timing belt and just holding the crank from turning. However, putting them back on with locktite is turning out to be a bit harder due to a timing issue with the curing locktite. Lots of fun.
