Hi all...
When you guys replace pushrod tube seals, do you usually drop the motor or do it with the motor in the car? Wondering if there is room...stock 2.0 liter with heat exchangers... Thanks, Mike |

Getting things clean and keep it clean throughout the seal change out process is very important. You don't need (and can't) remove the tube completely from the engine but you can still change the seals.

You don't need (and can't) remove the tube completely from the engine but you can still change the seals. Paul, is that for 2.0s or all engines? I was able to remove all of my tubes completely. Like I said, I needed to fanagle them, but I did get them all the way out. Again, not completely necessary but it allowed me to get them really clean before reinstallation. |
