Good to know. I am about to replace my cover seal that I think is leaking and was not going to bother with the shaft seal but after seeing your video, since my o-ring seal came with a shaft seal, I am going to do both. Thank you.
Videos where a mistake is made can be that much more valuable -- too bad most of us turn the camera off when something goes wrong. As much as anything else, that's education of experience.
There seems to be a problem with the quality of the oil seals and rubber gaskets on Toyotas of a certain age. I've dealt with oil leaks on two Toyotas 1992 and 1996 and basically every rubber seal and gasket on the motors had become hard and brittle. The exception has been the front crankshaft seal, that I believe is a more temperature resistant compound. (I assume the back end is the same) Moral of the story is; if you're getting stuck in and doing the work, don't skimp on replacement seals etc.
I'm planning to replace this lip seal on my oil pump because there is oil in the timing housing. My car has the 5E-FE engine and removing the oil pump is a real pita. It started out just a little wet on the pan, and now is making an oil slick under the car.. This video is helpful to know it just happens on older engines.
I should watch this video before I replace the oil pump gasket... after the few days driving, found out that leak again from the oils seal arhh.. thanks for the video :)
one more thing, you should post a video showing all the steps and procedures and parts you need to remove to get to the timing belt, I'm sure that many would find that useful too! Great Videos nonetheless, so keep them coming! Thanks again!
Hey, I noticed at 3:01, your oil pump turbine shaft has a groove worn in it. I've read a lot of ppl in other forums who say that if the shaft is worn like that, you can replace the seal and it will still leak. A new turbine shaft is like $40 at the dealer. (They also sell a kit to put a sleeve on it, but I wouldn't go there).
oh wow thank you so much for this video i have one of the same camry you have and mines are leaking oil too I don't know where the oil is coming from but now i know thank you so much
When a company uses natural rubber on high temperature parts, I cringe. Why would they do that? There are plenty of silicone based or teflon based materials which are totally heat resistant. How stupid. Good video thank you.
Nice video and very informative for us you tubers. Just like to know if what kind of tools did you use to remove the oil pump pulley and if you did remove the oil pan. I am having a hard time removing it without damaging the gears. Thanks and more power.
Cool! I have a 1990 Toyota Camry too! About to have my oil leak fixed. Fairly cheap too for the parts. I need a new water pump, camshaft seal and timing belt. One of my good friends already replaced the oil valve cover gasket for me.
I bought that whole housing with the oil pump from Toyota and a timing belt and water pump and Toyota gaskets.. Cost more for sure but Toyota parts are real good and last much longer then after market parts. I gave up on aftermarket junk..
I went to a local shop recently to have this repair done. I understand it involves taking the timing belt off, and understand its not a quick repair, but the parts are not a major cost. They quoted me over $600. This seems like what I would expect had I just gone to the actual Toyota dealership. Does this seem excessive for this repair or average?
Is it normal to have play or a shifting side to side once the sprocket is installed with the nut and rotor? That's whats happening on mine I just don't know if its a fitment problem or it's designed to do this.
I just lost my 1991 camry it had 98k miles and no rust. Some joker on the highway while we were slowing for construction he hit us at 70mph. It pushed the trunk in to the back seat .if my kids would have been there it would have killed them. We were both cut from the car and was flown to a crit care hospital . His reason for hitting us > His small dog jumped in his lap. !!! The worst part he is uninsured!!!.
I was thinking of having the shop put in a Import Direct timing belt kit (Water pump, timing belt, cam/crank seals, idler pully). Or I could take it to the actual Toyota dealer with Toyota parts for $250 more. $780 vs $1040.
South Main Auto has a good youtube video about this. Mr O stresses to ONLY use OEM gaskets and seals on this specific oil pump. All others fail much sooner. And the seals and gaskets NEED to be changed (again, with OEM) EVERY time you do the timing belt. If you do that, you are good.
I stupidly followed the chiltons guide it was telling me to take off the oil pan and in the process i broke the cat. converter. I have not yet taken off the oil pan im wondering if I should. i did buy all the gaskets for it. I'm wondering if taking off the oil pan is any more of pain after i take the exhaust piece off.
I had a hell of time getting things apart until i broke down and bought an air compressor and borrowed some air tools from a friend. I do not consider myself to be a mechanic by any means but these kind of videos sure are helpful and I try to do the best i can. It would be nice if i could find a video for putting on the new timing belt so i can understand the center of the piston business.
Good info for me. I have a 2007 camry, maybe that is the year you are discussing. I have to add about 6 oz of oil every 6 weeks. Any idea what you are saving by doing this yourself?? Thanks.
I have a 93 Toyota Camry with 302,000 miles on it. I had a bad oil leak(smoking) so I was told to have me oil pan gasket changed, I had it changed then I decided to go ahead and get a used engine. After I changed the engine and bought several new parts I soon to find out once we started the car that I still have a oil leak, but this time it looks like it is leaking from between the engine and transmission which I believe to be the flywheel. After looking at this video I will be sure to change the seal. Have you ever ran past a oil leak from the flywheel if not, do you think you can make a video or give me info showing me how to change the flywheel. Thank you ahead of time for your time.

i do have 1998 Camry LE it wont start in cold.I have change the temp sans- er and worked for 2 month and now is doing the seam thing can any buddy tell me what i have to do THANKS ,
I think I'll send the customer packing... not worth my time... the guy only wants to pay 50$ lmfao...Cheap Fuck.... I already replaced the oil pan gasket for 50 cause I liked the guy .. but now its still leaking and he expects me to fix it again for free... knowing it's this I'll just move on...some people are just too broke to own a car...
That's what you get for taking the whole thing apart and not changing a $1 seal! Common sense should have told you,if the other seals are hardened and brittle, they all are!
Thank you! I've dis-assembled down to the oil pump and was hesitant to take it apart. Your video showed me where the problem is.
I am so so glad you owned up to a mistake.
Trying to cut corners and save time, ended up costing more time in the long run.

This has been the most enformatible video i have seen that makes sense. thanks.
Is enformatible a word?

Don’t use RTV with that seal around the pump. It goes in dry. I use a little bit of grease to hold it in place.
Good info Dano....you should have talked to my Dad, and he could have saved you a lot of work LOL
Great Videos and does help others, who don't know!
Thanks so much for video. Im having same problem. now i know what to do.
Nice video and very informative for us you tubers. Just like to know if what kind of tools did you use to remove the oil pump pulley and if you did remove the oil pan. I am having a hard time removing it without damaging the gears. Thanks and more power.
Totally helpful God bless you

How did that work out ?!
Awesome dude i just watched your other video 2 days ago good thing you posted this one! Im am doing the same thing as we speak.
Thanks for the info what a great video share!
Easy to tell if a shaft seal is nearing the end of its service life. Seal lip should feel nice and flexible when wiggling back and forth.
I bought that whole housing with the oil pump from Toyota and a timing belt and water pump and Toyota gaskets.. Cost more for sure but Toyota parts are real good and last much longer then after market parts. I gave up on aftermarket junk..
"so haha stupid mistake" listened to it more than 10 times....i think i will make this my ring tone :D
A friend gave me a timing belt kit. I was wondering what part number is that oil pump seal ?
Was this "camry oil leak again" a fix for the V6, or the inline 4..? Your videos are FANTASTIC, btw..! You have saved this noob A LOT of money..!! ^_^

Excellent info...thanks and take care DanielJaegerFilms

You didn't need to move Alt to remove the timing cover ?
9/10 times the oil pump shaft has grooves worn into it. seems like everyone puts it back without noticing the grooves worn in from the shaft seal.
What type of sealent did you use for the oil pan
The instructions say to replace the seal and gasket every time
I just lost my 1991 camry it had 98k miles and no rust. Some joker on the highway while we were slowing for construction he hit us at 70mph.

true. oem or better dont go cheap on the seals and gaskets.
Yeah, and the OEM isn't but a dollar or two more. The price difference is slight but the quality difference is significant.
so is that part the oil pump seal?
THANK U USEFUL VIDEO!
Good job

I have one toyota too. Maybe oil leak or it burning oil(hope not burning oil).
add cd2 to ur new synthetic oil change
Are you joking, 6 oz? You do realize all internal combustion engines use oil, right? Talk about OCD.
When you take the pump off next time, replace it.
Haha sucks! It's great to learn from others mistakes and corrections.

anyone know the part number of this seal?
15100c
I would change the pump seal oil and now my engine oil subciona not Cartey that do not help mepodran
IF ONE SEAL IS BAD THE OTHER IS always bad REMOVE AND NO MORE EXTRA WORK. DON'T USE DORMAN SEALS
I think you could have replaced the crank seal without having to take off the cover.
czcams.com/video/839jfHLs5aI/video.html is a video of that.
When you do this kind of work go to the dealer the parts are way better...
I think I'll send the customer packing... not worth my time... the guy only wants to pay 50$ lmfao...Cheap Fuck....

He not only admitted he was wrong, he had the guts to show the video. you are an ass
