Don't be sorry the question is not dumb at all. On the camshaft sprocket is a alignment mark that has to be centered to the mark that is on the plastic protector behind the sprocket on top of the rocker cover
I haven't worked on a similar engine for a long time, but as far as I remember, the front crankshaft oil seal can be replaced on the spot. But in addition to the crankshaft pulley, you may also need to remove the radiator fin and even the radiator itself. Although the space is limited, I think it is possible to do it.
In this video I was focused only on this project. The goal was to finish the repair as quickly as possible but I have made several videos about engine repairs that are very detailed if you want to see this process step by step you can check on my channel. If I remember correctly the Lancia project that I did maybe will be helpful to you
I assume it's Audi 80 engines in this case. So far I have not worked on a 2.0 engine and have no experience with them. But the principle is the same. There are several 2.0 Audi 80 engines from this generation and it is hard to tell what the differences are because the engines are also different. One of the 2.0 engines is very close even identical to the 1.8 engine. The rest are not. Aside from engine size, the biggest difference comes from the fuel system. Injection method for both engines. I guess the size of the valves might be different. Maybe the intake, exhaust manifold to differ. It really depends on which engine it is.
Audi uses three 2.0 engines in the Audi 80 models. They have three different engines with different codes and different power which means they are different engines in general. There are engines with the following codes: 3A, 6A and AAD
sorry if it's dumb question but how did you know the position of the camshaft?

Is it possible to. take off crankshaft pulley to change the seal.
With engine inside car and without turning the engine ?

I forgot to specify that the timing belt and timing gear will have to be removed along with the plastic covers.
Did you lube the bolts for the Head before put it back?
I installed new set of bolts and I added a drop of oil on the tread and on the head of the bolt between the head and the washer

Please i more knowledge about this
How can i contact you?
You can ask what you want to know and I will answer you as long as I can
@@the_amateur ok what are the main difference between 1.8 and 2.0 engine?

@@the_amateur okay, so what you are trying to say is that there are different types of 2.0 engines right?
