Oil pump seal replacement - 6G Celicas Forums

Topic #96286 3 posts Started by igpx12
Hello everyone, little bit of an issue.

My celi has the 7AFE in it, I have had an oil leak since I bought it and have diagnosed the issue. I had a worn out camshaft seal and looks like a worn out oil pump seal, the camshaft seal has been replaced, however I cannot remove the crankshaft seal as it seems to have seized onto the crankshaft end. I have tried prying at it, heating it and hitting it while heated with a hammer with no success in moving it. So anyone else had this issue? if so how did you remedy it?

Finally managed to get the sprocket off and seal replaced, turned out to be corroded on to the crank and the end of the crankshaft had a burr on it. Hopefully nobody else has to deal with this, but if you do here is the end result of what I did. Drill, tap and pull.
