I love this guy. I've watched this video, and it answered many questions but I still don't know if my pump is good or not. I am still considering the possibilty of rod bearings, because I seem to have a slight knock towards the front of the engine. As for the bearing replacement, I was told they can be changed while in the engine. True?

17psi hot idle is a bit lower than normal, but IIRC, it is above the recommended minimum.
35 psi driving down the road normally should be fine as well.

A double lip seal has the main sealing lip that rides against the crank and an additional outer lip that shields the main lip from contamination. It's better.
