My pictures suck.... but basically its not that bad. Just need to pull off the harmonic balancer and replace the seal, but it takes some work getting to the balancer. Also, anytime they list "special tool", they're normally "common" tools that you can buy anywhere.
Thanks. That doesnt sound to hard but im sort of confused. It mentions removing the a/c compressor and draining the coolant. What is the reason for this. Im leaking oil from that seal. If your just taking off the balancer (crank) pulley and removing the old seal and installing a new one what is the point for doing all that other stuff listed in the instructions. Also it doesnt mention it but wouldnt you have to drain to oil prior to doing this...sooo confused!
EDIT: I've also had the radiator shroud/electrical fan out several times on the XK to clean the mud out of the radiator and none of that was needed to be done to remove it. So i know thats not the reason why the say to remove the a/c compressor.

I got it all figured out. Went to the dealer and got the seal today. Now just have to find time to install it! Probablly next weekend.

COol deal man. I hope it goes smooth. You plan on a write up for this or just get it done? Or is there already a write up out there?

ummmm...im not sure if a write up is really needed. If you look up a few post there are a few pics of the service manual. Im just going to go off that, minus a few steps and get it done. I'll take some pics during the process though and post them here because im doing my bumber mod at the same time. It will look similar to Sal-XK's.

Definitely let us know if you find out why they drain the coolant. If the fan/shroud can be removed without disconnecting the upper hose it seems like the majority of the work is circumvented.
