Pinto engine gasket set and oil seals

[eSteve]

Bonzo,

thanks for the reply and the recommendation. Just what I was after. I like the prices!

I will get them ordered up this evening.

I will relace the core plugs as this will make cleaning the water ways easier. I will also ask the chap about cylinder head bolts. As from what I've read they ought to be replaced for new. Presumably they stretch?

To my surprise all the fastenings, as I was stripping the engine, caused no bother, however my nemesis has appeared in the form of the crank shaft's cam belt sprocket, which I have to remove to get the front crankshaft oil seal housing off. Can't get my puller legs around the back of it. If I ease a drift between the back of the sprocket and the housing am I likely to damage anything? Any other suggestions on how to ease it off are welcome.

Thanks for you help.

Steve
