I hope i read this comment before I did my job. 2011 Merc Mariner. Yes I hammered the shaft seal with a socket and ...... broke it. Cheap Ford cut another $5 from cost. I hate to buy another plastic junk (9L8Z-6B293-A). Do you know the part # of the aluminum version of that retainer?

I have been delaying this job for years, and I am glad that I got it done today. Kudos to you for sharing you ingenious way to get the job done!

Good video! I may attempt this repair myself on my 08 fusion as mine has been leaking for several years, but appears to be getting worse. Could you provide details on that pulley puller you used? The auto shop said it’s like $1000 dollar puller, but there must be a much cheaper tool available online that will get the job done.

@605BOLT

Жыл бұрын

The puller for removing the pulley is a steering wheel puller similar to this. amzn.to/3OG4JVm Most parts stores have them to rent. Definitely not $1000. It's not a difficult job. Actually the part for pushing it back on I would say took a smidge more thinking and fiddling to get it going. If you have any questions, hit me up. 👍

Looks like a job my 07 might need. So many things though, gaskets, the belt, I don't even have a torque wrench, all for that little leak by the pulley. Probably not even worth it for a 2007. But damm good video. I will add to Fusion playlist just in case.

Torque wrench probably isn't necessary if you have a good feel for working on cars. Just wanted to try and do this "by the book".
