Did you take the timing belt off or just move it why did u show that part? I've replaced the timing belt and water pump before on my 2002 protege5

Hello, The main purpose of this repair was to replace the broken timing belt. I also changed the camshafts oil seals and the crankshaft oil seal which were leaking while it was open. I made the video on each repair so that it would not be too long. Thanks for watching and for your interest in my videos.

Hi there, is this what is call a rear main seal? thank you!

[@timpaps]

Hello Jeffrey, no, these are the camshafts seal located above the engine. The rear main seal is on the rear of the crankshaft located at the bottom of the engine. Thanks for watching and for your interest in my videos.

[@timpaps]

Hi Korad! Need to remove the timing belt cover to see where the oil is coming from. Thank you for watching and for your interest in my videos.

@@timpaps bro how do you remove the timing belt cover? I just change My alternator belt but now when I turn on the car it’s touching the cover and making an annoying sound
