Cam belt pulley seal
Need to replace the leaking seal behind the RH pulley (as viewed from the front ); pulley has ben removed. Is it possible to remove the seal without removing the rear belt housing? A seal removal tool can't get at the seal, due to to length of the pully shaft. Thanks in advance!

Re: Cam belt pulley seal
You will need to remove the belt housing on that side and you will probably need to loosen the 6 cam holder bolts to remove pressure on the seal a bit. Be sure and retorque the 6 bolts after you get the new seal installed.
