    3b Cambelt change and crank oil seal - parts help needed please!

    ok guys. So I have a small leak from under the harmonic balancer and Im pretty sure its the Crankshaft oil seal

    Got the car stripped down last night and was hoping people can help clarify what part numbers I need please

    This is S2 Ants ABY list

    #Can anyone tell me what is different for my 3b please?

    Timing Belt - 054 109 119H
    Crank Bolt - 034 105 229A
    Water Pump - 054 121 004AX (Exchange)
    - Bolts to fit - N 010 247 8 (x2)
    - Bolts to fit - N 014 717 2 (x1)
    - Seal - 035 121 043
    Crankshaft Oil Seal - 034 115 147 A
    Thermostat - 069 121 113
    Thermostat Seal - N 901 368 02
    - Bolts to fit Thermostat housing - N 010 218 6 (x2)
    Crank Pulley - 034 105 263A
    - Bolts to fit Pulley - N014 726 3 (x4)
    Coolant - G12+



    Also, a bit of a bone question here but which way do I need to rotate the engine to get the timing marks lined up as I know you should only rotate in the correct direction ..and I'm thinking it's clockwise (that I need to turn the crank bolt) but Im not 100% sure

    Thanks

    I think you'll have to remove the oil pump to do the oil seal. In which case you'll also need gaskets for the sump, oil pump and oil pick-up pipe.

    As for you list the different parts will be; the timing belt, crank bolt and water pump. It may be worth checking the timing belt roller on the oil pump too.

    The engine normally runs clockwise. Don't forget to line up the cam pulley too.

      The pump doesn't need removing to do the crankshaft seal.

        That will make things a lot easier then. What's the technique for getting the ****** out?

          Patience and there is a special seal tool used for prying them out or you can carefully screw to small wood screws in between the seal housing and the crank and draw it out by wiggling from side to side (the seal not yourself)

            Cheers Corey. Sounds like a good way to get the old seal out

            As an aside..Does anyone have a 3b locking tool they could lend me for a couple of days?
            Would be much appreciated

              I guess it's just me that likes to do things the hard way.
