Your video was fantastic! The way you explained the vacuum seal function was so clear and easy to understand. Thank you
Glad you enjoyed it!
Nice job Tom, us poor country boys can't afford those high fangled seal pull'n tools, we have to resort to wood
screws and pliers. 🤣👍🏼
Good ole screw and pliers works very well, though it’s the tiny seals that can be a bugger!! Cheers for watching mate :)
Anytime Tom, always a pleasure mate!! 🙂
Yep
Big shout to the drywall screws lol 😂 tom has all the updated tools where us have struggled lol
🤣🤣
Great to know i will have to get a tester thanks
It is great when one doesn't need to split the case to replace main seals. Otherwise it's like a total rebuild
Yes! It can get quite involved :)
Like taking a cork out of a champagne bottle pretty slick 👍 only half as much fun 🙂
😂😂😂
again a zery good informtive vid thanks brother BILL
You’re very welcome :)
I never even realized that shaft seals have to hold pressure/vacuum, I always just thought they kept oil from leaking out. Is that only for 2 strokes, or do 4 stroke oil seals also have to hold pressure?
There isn’t the same pressure in a 4 stroke engine as they have positive crank case ventilation. Their role is to hold oil as you mentioned.
@@VintageEngineRepairs Ahh gotcha. Thanks for the info.
How can you be sure the bearing is good? I was taught to suspect a bad bearing when a seal is leaking and replacing the seal will only temporarily fix a leak.
No that’s wrong. If there is no play in the bearing and it’s clean and smooth it’s likely fine. The bearings, with good lubrication can last many decades, seals much less so.
Another good video Tom. I’m like Big John, no OEM seal pullers here either. I’m not saying how I get them out, rougher than BJ. That’s all I’m admitting to😁😁
No I don’t know anyone else who has one I must be honest, at the price they are it’s a total rip of!!! I guess I was prepared to be ripped off to have the tool and enjoy using it though 😂🤣
@@VintageEngineRepairs Hobby Motor will have one. Isn’t that right John Klem 😄
@@almclean4835 I'm sure he does Al, him and Tom have all the cool gadgets. 🤣
@@Big_Johns they may have the cool tools but they’ll never cooler than us 🥶
That’s right Al, it’s tough being our level of cool. 🤣🤣
Yeah great video. Totally on the money. Thankyou
Thanks :)
Where did you get that tool?
Which one mate?
I have a question, and it's not related to this video. Would you consider doing a video on a battery-powered lawn mower it's seems they are becoming popular, and I couldn't think of another you tuber that would come close to the way you would explain it, please consider it
Hey :) firstly thank you! I appreciate the kind words tremendously! Battery equipment doesn’t interest me I’m afraid. My love and passion is purely the internal combustion engine. Therefore, it’s best someone who is as passionate about battery as I am about engines, do that video. :)
You don't have to seal off the intake & exhaust ports to be able to perform a pressure test or a vacuum test? I'm confused 🤔
Yep, both intake and exhaust are blocked 👍
where can you buy the seal extractor tool?
Hey, either directly through stihl or you can get clones of theirs. No idea on their quality though!
@@VintageEngineRepairs I have been told by multiple dealers,that Stihl tools are only sold to Stihl Dealers, and not to consumers!
If a flywheel side seal is bad enough will a 2 stroke engine not start?
It’s certainly possible!
Can you test vaccuum with a normal compression tester?
Na, it has to have both
Hi, another great video. I'm a bit of a caveman and on larger engines I've just driven a self tapping screw into the seal when used the claw of a hammer or a small pry bar to remove it. Would you recommend that method on these smaller engines if I didn't have the special tool?
Sure! I have done so before :) just be careful, work slowly and use small screws lol
@@VintageEngineRepairs Thank you! :)
tapered is the word you were looking for lol
Haha I don’t remember the context as the video is quite old now, but, thank you! Ha :)
