Long time listener, first time caller…
99 Honda Crv 225k mi recently acquired and I’m doing some baseline maintenance.
I decided to do a power steering pump “rebiuld”, basically replacing seals and orings. The oil seal tore and came apart on me and now I can’t get the last pieces out of the seal wall that sits in the slot. Any suggestions appreciated. I was going to try a torch next but not sure that’s a good idea.
Edit: Pictures attached. One of them shows what’s left of the old seal sitting in the slot or channel (not sure of right term). Looks like just a solid black circle. The other picture shows the new seal just placed on top of the old material which needs to be removed so the new can be seated in.
