Don’t pry on shaft and a little heat wouldn’t hurt😮

My mechanical seal came apart and left the inner cup in. Any advice on how to get it out....

@@Asunamazda if you're replacing the cup also like I was, put a wide head screw into it, and then used a slide hammer to pull the screw out with the cup. Worked like a charm

Nice job, did you put anything on the gasket before you mounted the pump housing back on?

I have coolant in my crankcase. Others have said pump seal or could it be the head gasket?

@TitaniummanGarage 2 жыл бұрын

If you look at the sparkplug and its wet and its blowing coolant out the tail pipe or white smoke..Head gasket. If its dripping from the weep hole...its the seal.

I have a 1999 sportsman 335 that was leaking oil. I took the cover plate off the oil cooler pump and it had no impeller or mechanical seal. Just a gasket around the middle post. The post is not threaded and all I can see is the bearing and the post. Don’t really understand if this is normal or was the mechanical seal been missing? Help!!!

do you remember which kit you bought?

@rockhammer3297 Жыл бұрын

Looks like I bought the exact same kit as you and I just got done replacing mine in my sportsman 500 now I am getting coolant leaking out of my weep hole. Not sure if I got bad seal. I am guessing if it is coolant leaking it is the mechanical seal that is the issue.

Yup. Its leaking or the rubber seal behind it.

Same thing happened to me! Whatd you end up doing to fix it.

@MatthewSchultz-mg5fb Жыл бұрын

The shaft and bearing inside housing how do you pull that apart to change shaft and bearing inside housing do I have pull while engine to do that thanks

@TitaniummanGarage Жыл бұрын

I haven't had to do that. but I believe it is pressed in. You would have to split the case halves to get to it on a 500.

Dumb question been work one one these for a friend seen it was leaking out the lil hole could this cause an overheating problem? And when I pressure test it , it don’t leak out that hole or anywhere else just happened to notice it was dripping

When you pressure test it you might be pushing in the mechanical water pump. If it leaks out the weep hole its leaking somewhere. Check the oil in the engine. see if there is coolant in the block.

Is this a scrambler 400 or 500? Also what kit part number did you use?

@TitaniummanGarage Жыл бұрын

Its a Sportsman 500. It will work on a Scrambler 500.

I thought you said in your previous vidios that this was the incorrect way of doing this job ? I was getting water in the crankcase as well . I recently did this job by taking off the "plate" behind the flywheel . I think the problem was the inner seal . So far no water in the oil .

@TitaniummanGarage Жыл бұрын

It's not the best way to do it because if you dont get the inner seal in correctly it could leak. My first attempt years ago failed.

97 scrambler 500 non ho: I can’t really tell if it’s the weep hole that’s leaking or if it’s the outer impeller seal AND I ABSOLUTELY DO NOT WANNA PULL MOTOR just because frame is in way of pump (no white smoke)

@theworldisastage1984 10 ай бұрын

Well ours is impossible to pull out

Did you get it out? I’m having the same problem

@tamminunez5348 6 ай бұрын

It's a bitch!!! One advice I can give is to do it on a day your super relax and plan on spending a few tedious hours. Found it to be easier to break the seal piece by piece and once you only are down to just the metal and no other obstructions to punch out the metal by delivering super light blows with a small sharp flat screw driver and then slide out the middle piece off the shaft. Using a hook catching the back of whats left pull slowly and gently towards you. Once you see the first edge/sealing surface pull away just work around and it comes off. Not easy but doable.
