Anyone know where I can get a good new one for cheap , possibly online? I live in Canada

 

Just get one from your local acura/honda dealer.

Spending $$ on one online + shipping = getting one for more than you would at the dealer.

Did you even price one out at the dealer?

yeah I did , but after searching HT I found that the after market ones had a better life to them than the stock ones

I WOULD GO TO THE DEALERSHIP TOO

 

how easy is it to replace.. anyone want to give me a quick rundown?

 

not very difficult at all, just remove the valve cover and then the camshaft holder plate depending which seal is bad (intake or exhaust side), and then carefully remove the seal with a flathead screwdriver making sure not to damage the head
its a very simple procedure

unless it is a b18b in which case it has no camshaft holder plates

 

yeah it is b18b

 

You don't actually need to replace this plug. Just take off the valve cover, remove the camshaft holder plate, take out the seal, clean it up as well as the place where it sits, then reinstall it with plenty of RTV.

 

and RTV is?

 

i have a silver one you can have if you want it. its brand new unused 3 o-ring sealed. pm me.

 

[IMG][/IMG] there it is. a cam seal plug.

 

Is it leaking from the intake cam (where the diz is) or the exhast cam? If it's the exhaust side, you can use a cam cap like the one pictured above - and you have to take the valve cover off. If you're leaking oil out of the intake cam, you can get a new distributor o-ring for $5 from the dealer and you don't have to take the valve cover off.

 

its the one that is closer to the bumper on the head

 

=exhaust cam...and rtv is a sealant to ensure no leakage of oil

 

it says P30 on the seal , does this mean i do not have to open the valve cover?

 

Jesus Christ...

IF you searched a little, you would've seen a thread that was titled 98 ls cam seal. And once again, you're welcome.

The install itself shouldn't take so long, it only took my friend 10 minutes when he did it for me.
