The only hard thing about this is the timing belt. Even I have a hard time ,timing up the timing belt. Nice video!
He made it look so easy to do it
that oil seal puller tool looks very effective and very safe not to scratch the surfaces
Yes! ...and it's easy to use as this was my first time with this tool (was used it to pull the crank shaft seal as well). Although I paid $18 for it, it paid for itself.
I have leaking seals and I'd do it but need the tools to be listed and anything to know like timing the car ?or anything like that
you never replied what do I remove . beside all the covers and the intake.
Great video brotha!
Glad you liked it and thanks!
Great video bro
Thanks man!
Nice video. I'll be changing the timing belt on a Tacoma next week. Kit came with the camshaft seals. Is there a way around using the camshaft pulley tool?
It's a manual 4x4 and I know putting it in gear will let me remove/install the crankshaft pulley but not sure about the camshafts. I'll have another person, maybe a rubber inner tube might hold er long enough?
Thanks for your comment. Inner tube will give you problems. Go to the your closest Home center (Home Depot) and get a strip of 1x3 lumber and a couple of 3/8" X 5" lag bolts. Mount the lag bolts on the wood spaced appropriately for your camshaft gears. Drill a hole in the center of the wood between the two bolts large enough so you can fit your socket (ratchet) in there. Of course cut down the length of the wood long enough to reach a place on the engine bay to brace against or just enough so you or a friend can hold in a comfortable position. Voila, you have yourself a tool. You can also use this concept for your crankshaft pulley as well using a 2x4 piece of wood and machine bolts that will fit the threaded holes in your pulley.
Very clever and frugal. My kind of way. Thanks.
Got a question, do you put anything on the seals before you pop them in? Gasket sealer or anything of that sort? Gotta do this on my SC400, just curious. Looks pretty straight forward.
Chuck Tate Yes. Apply a light coat of Multipurpose Grease to the inner lip of each seal before tapping them in place. This includes both camshaft and crankshaft seals. DO NOT USE GASKET SEALER!
I don't see why not. However, the concensus is multipurpose grease which is stated in the Toyota service manual as well as being used in many how-to videos and enthusiast forums.
I have an interference engine. How do I remove the camshaft pulley without destroying the valves and anything else that might be damaged. To change the timing belt you need to clamp the pulley so it doesn't move. Correct?
+Jack Sep Yes you are correct. When you loosen or tighten down the cam pulley bolts, secure the camshaft pulleys so they don't move off their timing marks, especially on an interference engine. If I had an interference engine, I would keep the old timing belt on when loosening the cam bolts and torque the cam bolts only after the new belt is on. This way, if the one pulley rotates by accident, the other ones will move in sync, maintaining correct valve timing, reducing the risk of any damage.
+strumpeteer Nice tip. Thanks
1:10 that sound is the same sound Benny Hill would make when he would tap that old guys head.
smithraymond09029 LOL! I do remember that!
Great video. Could I replace the seals without doing the timing belt? My timing belt is still good but my cam seals are leaking.
Thanks! I never tried it but I think it might be possible. Difficult, but possible. You'll have to remove the top two front timing covers and carefully slide out the belt off the cogs to gain access to rear timing cover. The difficult part is that the belt will still have tension. If you're asking if this is the correct and recommended procedure to gain access to the cam seals, the answer would be NO.
strumpeteer .ok thanks bro. I'll have to think about this lol
how many hours you say someone who is mechanically inclined would take to do this job
+dman5703 Hi dman, watch this video: ua-cam.com/video/RPwh59NVAT8/v-deo.html and it will answer all the questions you asked.
We’re did you buy that tool that hold the cam gears?
Pulley Holder: made by Performance Tool #W89208. I bought from Amazon.
Thanks Man!🙏🏽💯💪🏽 Got Mine! strumpeteer
Do I need to have a timing gun to do this
No timing gun is needed. (sorry the video was misleading.)
@@strumpeteer no it was very informative thank you so much this is what will help me do my timing for the first time ever
What kind of tools are those and what are symptoms of worn seals?
The tools used are Wilmar camshaft pulley holder and Lisle shaft seal puller. The main symptom of worn or failing oil seals is leakage from one or both of the camshaft pulleys.
@@strumpeteer What about the music? You always have the best retro type of music
@@dallanlewis6084Do a you tube search for: "royalty free drum and bass"
@@strumpeteer Awesome stuff! What's your Instagram? I want to keep up and see the new ride and current life
@@dallanlewis6084 Thanks brutha but I don't do social media these days and I won't be uploading anymore videos anytime soon because time is limited for me lately. From time to time people make comments on these old SC300 videos and I answer them to the best of my memory.
easy peeesy
