cam seal

i have a b16a with a missing cam seal ... it leaks a little bit of oil but not much just wondering if this will do any heavy damage to the engine?

Re: cam seal

a $4 seal would fix this problem.

Re: cam seal

You have to remove the valve cover and the camshaft girdle to install it, but the part's not expensive. It's a good idea to get one anyway.

i would think that if oil can come out, dirt can go in. the cam seals cheap, but if you want to dress up your engine, STR have colored cam seals, red, blue, polished, but of course they cost more.
