Camshaft oil seal replacement

Model: Vauxhall Kadet - Years 1984-1991
Part: Engine

The camshaft oil seal is also present in the emery series gasket kit; before inserting it must be thoroughly lubricated using clean engine oil. At this point, align the oil seal to its seat, taking care to make it enter perfectly perpendicular, avoiding that it gets stuck on one side, causing any deformation during insertion, which would obviously affect the seal. Once the oil seal has been replaced, assemble the toothed pulley by tightening the relative fixing pins with the torque wrench and taking care to align the references of the phase before installing the timing belt.
