  Q: How to replace the RH valve stem oil seal and Rocker Shaft Spring Kit on Cadillac Seville?

  A: Gather the required tools j 38820, j 39313, j 43059, j 44211, j 44214, and j 38820 to replace the oil seal and valve spring on the right side. Raise your vehicle after removing both right Camshafts to reach the parts. Unfasten both components between the engine Oil Pan and transaxle case before taking off the torque converter cover. Put the j 44214 in place before lowering the vehicle to ground position. For safety clear the area around the Spark Plug port before you take out the Spark Plug from that working cylinder. Fit the base plate of j 44211 on top of the Spark Plug hole and insert j 39313 while keeping the valve closed through steady compressed air. Insert the arm and swivel nut of j 44211 onto its matching valve stud until you can reach the valve locks with ease. Use a magnet to pull off valve locks from their position. Then turn the swivel nut loose to allow the arm to move outward so you can take out the valve spring retainer and spring. Irrigating the j 38820 seizes and takes out the old valve stem seal while you discard it. Apply clean engine oil to both elements before inserting the new valve stem seal through the j 38820 tool. Position valve locks into their places using the j 43059 tool while the swivel nut of j 44211 remains loose for valve lock access. Set down the j 44211 swivel tools after taking out its swivel nut and arm so you can perform the same steps on other valve replacements. Lower the engine air pressure and take out both j 39313 and j 44211 parts including base plate. Reinstall the Spark Plug. When done with all cylinders apply new right camshafts and lift the vehicle to proceed with the j 44214 removal. After placing the torque converter cover return the Oil Pan to its bracket position and fasten all bolts to 50 nm (37 ft. Lbs.). Lower the vehicle back to the ground.
