ive done went threw 7 an everyone of'm leaked hard. the last one worked for about a week. is there anything yall ever done to fix it other than replacen the crank?

 

bump, damn aint none of yall ever had this problam?

 

Go rent a seal driver, be patient, and do it right the 8th time

 

i did it right not with a seal driver, the cranks got a nick in it an i wasnt gonna put another one in untill i knew there wasnt noone thats ran into it an figured out what you could do about it. it worked good leavin it out a little bit but when i was tunin last night it started leakin again. if it jus spun im silicone it in an see how it works. sound like a good idea?

 

you can use emeroy cloth to get the bur out if it is small . how bad is the nick?

 

dang, doesnt sound to good...cranks arent that expensive tho...not an OEM used.

 

yea i heard about that cloth, how much? the nicks bad but not to bad, i was gona say expletive it an tke it out an go ahead an throw the d17crank an some d16a1 pistons but i needa fix it quick, i aint gotta ride to work.

 

say what d17 crank in a D16? friends got an extra crank if ya need one out of his shitty d17 vtec that exploded after 30k miles.

 

how much you think he wants for it? yea i MIGHT go ls rods in it, i gotta figure out what kinda rods ima use an see if i gotta take it to the machine shop or not.

 

u dont need a new crank.. but if it has a nick in it, it needs to be polished up. take it to a machine shop and see if they can do it for a few $$

 

if ima take the motor right back out ima go ahead an use a different crank anyways. its bad enough to be replaced but ima tryin figure somethin out for it.

 

You use thw worst grammar of anyone I've ever seen on the internet. I had to reread your first post three times to understand it.
Because of that, I can't bring myself to help you.

 

i aint get on here to hear **** about i cant talk over a computer.

i tore everything down today an turns out the crank seal wasnt leakin anymore, its the cam seal. thats 2 front seals that done started leakin.

yall think i needa tear it down an have everything balanced?

 

i dont think anything being out of balance would cause leaking... sounds to me like some seals have just gone bad and need replacing

 

just replace the leaky seals.

 

thats the point, i aint the type that juss buys a motor an throws it in. i checked everything an put all new gaskets in it. the cam an crank front seals are brand new, i went threw a couple crank seals before i had to rig it an now it the front cam seal. idk what the hells goin on with it
