I heard once you pull these things apart if you do not know what you’re doing, these motors turn into an absolute nightmare, especially if you go changing apex seals.

Are the apex seals bad?

It’s definitely not something you just read up on and then go ahead and pull it apart and expect it to go flawlessly. As someone else mentioned, if you’re just some internet technician working on cars, stop what your doing right now.

Ask yourself this, have you ever done it before? If you answered no, then that answers your question. Have someone who has done the job do it.
