Unhappy Anything I Should Know?

I have recently found out that my crank seal has gone bad and is leaking oil pretty bad and preparing on fixing it myself. i know i should replace the timing belt while im in there but is there anything else i should do? or any tips that i should know before i take everthing apart? or is there any other parts i will need besides a timing belt and a new seal? Please Help!!!

How many miles on the car now?

General opinion is that while you are in there it is a good pm measure to replace the water pump, oil pump also.


moved this to tech section where it will get more attention.

Also - you might want to try a search here on "timing belts" or "crank seal" There are a few in depth posts on the process, part numbers, what to change, and links to a very good how-to.

My car only has 71,000 miles on it, but im pretty sure that is where the leaking oil is coming from ( Didn't start until I raced my car at my high school drags ) I probably will replace the water pump while im down there. Thanks a lot immortal_suby, i found lots of good info in past posts.
