Why wouldn't they do that anyways? Metal dust? Big deal, get the job done. And just use a paper towel. And clean up with whatever. For the people that are just saying, just use a flat head screwdriver or use a puller. Now I got a hardware store guy saying the same thing he doesn't understand. It's metal, you can't just stick something in there. It's hard as a rock. You have to drill holes. Nobody cared to warn me about this of course. And all of the timing belt videos of course. Just skipped literally how they got the crankshaft seal out. The guy at the hardware store is like. Just take out the shaft. I give up. It's always when I'm working on my car I have these problems. Yet, I can search through 10,000 forums and videos. And because the people in the video didn't want to show how it's done properly or how they run into problems. You lose time. It's very important.

That part made me nervous...

......magnetised bearings aren't permitted for aviation engineering . They even use degaussing equipment on bearings . Here I don't think he actually removed all the filings cos we see something from the camera angle but which he couldn't see .

@@charlesdickens6706 You know a better method on 1990-1993 Honda Accord timing belt videos they don't show Crankshaft seal removal? One guy did a video and just cut away and didn't even show it. When they cut away, never assume it wont be complicated? You can't take a puller and go through it. It's a crankshaft seal, not a camshaft seal. METAL DUST KILLS A Gasket???? EATS AWAY (I"LL MAKE SURE TO CLEAN THEN), ALsO OnLy UsE GeNuIne HoNDa Fluid (MORE BS internet rumor), also never CHANGE TRANSMISSION FLUID out of the fear that it already has a problem and can make it worse (now people don't do it all). Internet advice, or multiple people's advice is just terrible some times. I'm sick of wasting hours on my car not getting a job done because someone skipped a crucial step or didn't show it. The most crucial part of it all, is to tell people went wrong. So when we get to tricky part. We don't have to waste time buying more tools. It seems most tools can't even be found at a hardware or toolshop? If you ever made a decent wage. Maybe you could have a garage so you can take your TIME??????????????? Apparently, can't afford that. Retail store wants me to start a family yeah right. Working on cars sucks. For the people that are just saying, just use a flat head screwdriver or use a puller.

You can't find screws as small enough as this person has to screw in there and stay. Then FEAR of making a mistake makes the job not get done (oh you can damage this and that) (okay than you do it, it then !!!!! like the slightest little nick, now they say it's on the shaft and not the outside of the shaft. Then a person say it's both, you can't win. And also, not selling tools you need and having to wait an extra 5 to 6 days because something goes wrong. There should be a something goes wrong! In videos that people do.

yapp... :))))) the good old way ! and without all the metal debry he's gonna stuff into the crank bearing ;)

gud idea

Honda 1990-1993 accord cranshaft seal. Is made out of different material than. It's got a hard steel barrier. It's hard as a rock. For what you are talking about is the crankshaft seal. Since nobody bothered to do a video showing how they did it. The guys that did the timing belt job. Just cut away showing that it was already done. By not providing the problem or solution. I waste more time, and so do others. My theory is they had to do it sloppy and don't want to show it on the video. Please do!

.....sarcasm might not translate as expected .

If only there was a seal or something keeping them from getting in it....

the drill naturally pulls the metal outward, none gets in.

......good points. Those filings concerned me and out of his view but on camera for us appeared to be some filings he missed cleaning out ,,but I've only viewed it on my phone,, . I think I'd try to punch a small hole first for the self tappers ,,

Now that is a solid idea! Thanks man I am certainly not putting metal shavings inside of my engine.

Great idea!

@@zuilok Metal shavings are on the OIL PLUG and in the Filter. And on the transmission magnet plug. ARE YOU SERIOUS JUST??????????? I really hate doing the timing belt, it never ends with problems that occur. And purist creating silly rumors. ONLY USE HONDA TRANSMISSION FLUID. ONLY USE HONDA POWER STEERING AND NOW BRAKE FLUID. STOP IT PLEASE. Create your own fear. Now people don't want to transmission fluid changes out of the rare instance that it would cause problems. Well, your transmission already had problems. IT never ends ANYONE WANT TO FINISH THIS NEVER ending job? And a tensioner bolt that rusted out. There is no perfection when it comes to car repairs? JUST WIPE THE SHAVINGS OFF SERIOUSLY!? Before you take it off. MY GOSH. The guy wants me to take a shaft out. CAMSHAFT Maybe be a piece of cake. But you can't just use a SEAL PULLER AND POKE a whole inside that as hard as a rock.

I have done tons of these seals. Mostly used the proper tool. In a pinch I have drilled about a dozen of them. I feel a self tap screw has more chance of walking off the seal than a nice sharp drill bit. A punch can walk off too, maybe not if the engine is on a stand at eye level and not between a radiator or a strut tower. Once I had the bit walk off the seal, score the crank seal surface and had to sleeve the shaft I never drilled another one. As for metal shavings, just flush them down to the bottom of the pan, they will either get caught in the pickup screen, the filter or the fill plug magnet on a properly maintained engine.

Why would you use rtv? Newbie asking.

deemorrisful if you have to use sealant then the “seal” isn’t doing its job, lol

No one talks about that do they !! Haha I’m trying the same but it would seem not !

Vaseline is good enough

Lil bit vaseline should be good enough

The one on the flywheel end. He said that.

You don't need to bend it. Just jam it in and pry out the seal. I've done this thousands of times...

@@KOakaKO show us how

@@ppppugh7892 If you have to ask, you probably shouldn't be working on motors.

@@screamingpencil yeah, I'll stick to engines. I wasn't asking how, I was telling Mr Smart Arse (done it 1000's of times) to 'show'. That's what KZfaq is, show! Because a picture tells a thousand words. Thanks for your valuable, non-time wasting remark.

which ones? crankshaft, shifter, water pump, sprocket,. either one use a small screwdriver or seal remover. go easy on the screwdriver dont go too far in. put them in with a socket or seal driver.

my atv throws a lot of smoke and has no power so i think i need to replace crank seals

check the compression the rings might be shot.

before you do that is it gear oil or is the compression low? if so it will be going thru the rings blow by.

Cheers!

Some seals are easier. For a CV driveshaft for example you first remove the shaft and then have access to the inside.
