This table covers the front and rear seals that keep oil in at the crankshaft. Typical signs include a wet housing, a drip after sitting, or fluid flung off a rotating shaft. Fix the surface the seal rides on. A new seal on a grooved shaft will leak again.

This table covers the oil filters that screw onto this engine's filter mount. Typical signs include low oil pressure after a service, or a filter that will not spin off because the old gasket stayed on the block. Lube the new gasket and tighten to the spec on the box; a double-gasket install dumps the sump on the first drive.

This table covers the Timing Belt pulleys. Typical signs include a growl or chirp that follows engine speed, or a pulley that will not spin freely by hand. Spin each pulley with the belt off. Roughness or play means replace it with the belt.

This table covers the pressed-in bronze and cast-iron guides that align valve stems. Typical signs include oil smoke on startup, a guide that has gone oval, or a valve that no longer seats quietly. Guides are a machine-shop fit. Confirm stem diameter in the notes before ordering.
