    Cam Seal leaking again

    Question for the experts. The cam seal for MFI is leaking again. It was replaced a few years ago. I read somewhere about putting two seals in ?? Has anyone heard of this? Cam does not look scarred where seal rides. Any help is appreciated.
    Thanks
    Don

    I've done it 100 times. Just install the new seal in on top of the old one and you'll be fine...
