OIL LEAK AT REAR STATIONARY GEAR O-RING/ON-CAR REPLACEMENT PROCEDURE

Model(s): 1979-95 Mazda RX-7
Category: B (01) - Engine
Bulletin No.: 003/98
Date: July 16, 1998

DESCRIPTION

The following procedure is for on-car rear stationary (RS) gear
O-ring replacement. This procedure is not included in the Workshop
Manual. When the RS gear O-ring is leaking, use the following on-car
procedure.

REPAIR PROCEDURE

1. Verify customer complaint.

2. Remove the flywheel (M/T) or counterweight (A/T). Refer to the
Workshop Manual section C and H.

3. Set the front rotor to TDC (top dead center) per the Work-shop
Manual section C.

4. Remove the six bolts from the RS gear.

NOTE: If the eccentric shaft and rotor are rotated with the
RS gear removed, they cannot be re-used. The engine
will require overhauling.

5. Insert two screwdrivers or pry bars and pry out the RS gear.
See Fig. 1.

CAUTION: To prevent the (RS) gear from falling out, loosely
reinstall one of the bolts back into the gear. This
will hold the gear in place while prying.

6. After the (RS) gear is pried loose, remove the one bolt used
to hold it in place, and remove the (RS) gear assembly.

7. Remove the O-ring and oil seal, and clean the (RS) gear. After
(RS) gear is cleaned, use shop air to remove any remaining
debris. See Fig. 2.

8. Apply a small amount of oil to the new O-ring and oil seal
and install.
