onnaj1000 Posted April 1, 2015 Share Posted April 1, 2015 Hi, I did find out that my Starlet EP91 is leaking oil from the front main seal. I do have to change the timing belt soon anyway, so i better change the seal at once. What i'm wondering though is if i could replace the main seal without removing the oil pump housing, Or is it advisable the replace the oil pump seal at the same time? Don't think it's leaking from there though. Any special tools needed for the seal removal? Usually they pry it out with a screwdriver, i think the 4EFE will be no different? Thanks Quote Link to post Share on other sites

onnaj1000 Posted April 13, 2015 Author Share Posted April 13, 2015 Hi,Thanks! I don't want a new pump though, just wondering if I should replace the oil pump seal also? The pump is fine and I'm not going to change that :-) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
