Coverage and how to read this overview
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

That's KK's homemade solution version 2.0. The other "K" must have rubbed off. Lasted a whole lot longer than the first one.

99 will be the dual row bearing if it’s standard, if it’s gone that far leave it alone, lock engine in TDC, pull the cam chain tensioners before you remove the ims flange, once flange is off, pop the bearing seal off carefully with a small pick, this will let better oil inside to help it go on longer!

I went with this idea. The bearing looked to be in great shape.

It was all original. I put a new seal on it from the pelican kit I bought.
