Unsure if the rubber piece inside the wheel bearing is the same as the rubber piece I’m referring to comes with the drive shaft. See attached pictures of where it is on my vehicle 98 Accord LX 4cly. I’m inclined to believe if a rubber seal came out of wheel bearing it would be pretty damaged as the clearances for a honda front wheel bearing are fairly small.

Thanks for the video. I reviewed but still not sure how much oil flow during normal (non-VTEC) operations there should be out of the VTEC solenoid into the top of the cylinder head.

Unsure where you live. But I’ve used the O’Reilly’s loan a tool program to rent their coolant pressure tester for my 98 Accord maybe similar to your Honda cap fit? They just hit your credit card while you borrow the tool and return it in 48 Hours. If no O’Reilly – Napa, PepBoys and Autozone all loan this type of tool.

Thanks for the idea. After visiting 5 different Honda dealers in San Diego I found out that the dust ring only comes as part of a new driveshaft assembly. Two junk yards would only sell it to me as part of a used drive shaft, which I don’t need since both drive shafts were replaced two years ago. I asked the Honda dealers to check their drive shaft cores for dust rings, but most advised they quickly send these to Honda, in Ohio to get remanufactured. Three local independent mechanics all thought the dust ring was actually a bearing seal, which is not correct. End solution is tomorrow I’ll install the drive shafts with the dust ring on the driver side and I’ll try to use a gasket sealer passenger side to protect the wheel bearing in the knuckle.
Open to additional solutions though!
