pinto oil seal

[mk2 matt]

I've got an oil leek on the cam oil seal on my pinto, so tonight i thought i would fix it. two seals later it's still the same

The seals i've used are ones left over from head gasket sets bought from my local factors.

Anyone had this problem and no of a better seal to use or why the ones i've used don't work

 

Thanks matt

have you checked the front bearing for wear

[mk2 matt]

no

if the bearing is worn what will that do to the seal?

how do i check it do i have to take the cam out?
