Another upcoming job….video to come LX450 Distributor shaft seal and oil pump o-ring

So, I didn’t end up making a video on this job, but here are the parts you will need below.

I recommend getting some replacement screws for the oil pump cover as they are prone to strip out.  I was successful in getting them out with a number 3 Milwaukee bit and hammering them into each screw several times before trying to back them out with my impact driver 1/4″.

Getting the crank bolt off was very difficult, but my high torque Milwaukee impact wrench saved the day.

There’s a good write up for this process on ih8mud.com

Best of luck to you.
