Removal Procedure
- Remove the crankshaft position sensor reluctor ring. Refer to Crankshaft Position Sensor Reluctor Ring Replacement , or Crankshaft Position Sensor Reluctor Ring Replacement (LV7) .
- NOTE:
The engine could be equipped with two different rear oil seal designs.
Check which of the crankshaft rear oil seals (1, 2) is installed.
- CAUTION:
Be careful that the crankshaft will not be damaged while the crankshaft rear oil seal is pulled out. Failing to do so may reduce the leak-tightness and could cause damage to the crankshaft.
Use a suitable tool to remove the seal.
