1 or 2 Camshaft seals during TB change?

[Woz2000]

Read through the guide and most of the timing belt threads here. Still not too sure. Is there only one camshaft seal that needs replacing? From what I can gather, the second camshaft is driven internally? Is that correct?

In the process of ordering the TB, tensioner, tensioner spring, water pump w/housing, o-ring, crankshaft seal and camshaft seal...

Also need a short hose for the water pump to elbow, anything else I need?


Thanks!

Isn't there another seal at the distributor end?

I think I've found the answer, there is only 1 seal behind the pulley, the second camshaft is driven internally.

The camshaft should be staying inside the head on the distributor end, so there is no seal there.

You may find that the valve cover gasket/seals need replacing too. They are typically hard as a rock by now if they havent been replaced previously.

I agree the valve cover seals are probably shot, but since those are easily done, I'll wait to see what they look like and if needed to replace them after.
