hi all...

my mechanic is rebuilding a 2.1 WBX engine for my tintop 1989 Syncro... he's asking me to locate and get a seal for the main pulley...

unlike the pulley from a 2WD van, the pulley for a Syncro is different, it has a water seal...

could you please help me to find that special seal... btw I already have the pulley minus a good water seal...

thanks

dan

A little closer to home, GoWesty is out of stock. Van Cafe has it, but ouch!

He has a budget to adhere to? If you buy it..... it's not an item he budgeted in the rebuild?

Who in their wildest dream would think a crank seal is $145 + !!!!
