Anyone got any tips to fit a Pinto Camshaft Oil Seal, i have damage one trying to get it fitted as per the manual and need to get a new one.
Would warming it up in water help?

Anyone?

Make sure the seat is clean.

Wipe some thick grease around the seal then bang it in with a socket of the right size.

Make sure its square before you start hammering it.

Should go in easy.
