Front Crankshaft oil Seal Removal

[thermos]

I have a late '92 Scoupe with an Alpha 1.5 engine.

It is leaking a bit of oil where the timing belt is. The camshaft seal seems OK, so I am guessing I should replace the crankshaft front oil seal.

Is it possible to remove crankshaft front oil seal without the removal of the oil pump etc?

Thanks

if you mean like a o-ring type seal,

get a tiny self tapping screw, drill the screw into the seal and pull the screw with the seal out.

As far as I know, you only have to remove the pulley, and the pump. It's not too bad, to do the same on my car you have to remove several oilpan bolts, most of the front dress, the water pump, fan and clutch, oil pump and the chain casing. Then unbolt the seal and put everything back on.

Shouldn't be too hard to do, there's an HMA service somewhere on here to show you how to do it. I don't know the link, but it's on here somewhere. .
