The dealer offers a BS removal kit?.... SERIOUS?

 

^^no its not a kit, all it is, you have to buy all 4 parts separately, (plate, 2 bearings, and stub shaft)

 

you only need three parts (md092785 cap,md098626 plug,and mf665543 sealin bearing) these parts are used in the 4g61 engine.

1992 mirage with 1.6 dohc no balance shafts were used in that engine. parts will cost $25.00 send me an email.

 

well you need (2) of the sealin bearings correct? So you need 4 total parts

 

no just one bearing. oil travels into the front of the balance shaft and out the back. when you block off the front oil channel and remove

the balance shaft you have infact disabled the oiling to the rear bearing............

 

i order the parts the vfaq 2 bearing seals 1 shaft and plug $30 with the DSM club discount.

 

you got a good deal, let me know how the removal goes.

good luck

 

it was a little agervating but easy to do i still have motor in car if you follow the vfaq forum and it goes good it just getting the motor to drop down far enought to pull the shaft out.

 

You can leave the front shaft in since the engine is still in the car.

 

the vfaq had both ways to do it out of car and in car. i wanted the weight out and the way they have you drop the motor down really low just make sure you don't let it slip off and check all you vac lines.
