REPLACING WATER PUMP SEAL The water pump seal may be replaced without removing the crankcase cover from the engine. The water pump housing and water pump impeller must be removed. If any evidence of coolant is observed in the oil, this indicates that the oil seal behind the water pump seal is leaking. To replace the oil seal, the crankcase cover must be removed. To remove the oil seal, use the same tools and procedure for removing the water pump seal. The following tools are required to remove the water pump seal, Fig. 97: • Puller Nut #19140
Fig. 95 Check Breather The engine utilizes a breather valve to control and maintain a vacuum in the crankcase. The breather vents crankcase vapors through the air cleaner.
• Puller Stud #19398 • Support Driver #19394 • Pilot Nut #19395 • 1/2” Flat Washer • Nut #94814
The reed valve is spring-loaded and must make a complete seal around the vent holes in breather body, Fig. 96. Check to see that reed valve is not deformed. DO NOT USE FORCE ON REED VALVE.
