Crankshaft Rear Oil Seal Installation

Procedure

1. Inspect the seal recess for excess sealer material at the lower crankcase to engine block mating location. Remove excess sealer, if present.
2. Ensure proper use of room temperature vulcanizing (RTV) sealant. Use of Room Temperature Vulcanizing (RTV) and Anaerobic Sealant 
3. Add RTV sealer at 2 locations where the bedplate and block join prior to installing the oil seal. Refer to Adhesives, Fluids, Lubricants, and Sealers .
NOTE:

The oil seal must be installed in the correct direction. The side that faces out will have "this side out" printed on it. Depending on seal design, the way the seal is installed on the EN-51369  installer is opposite. Either the seal is installed over the back of the installer, or the seal is installed over the front of the installer. Match the seal design as shown above and install the seal onto the installer in the correct direction.

4. Install the oil seal in the correct direction on EN-51369  seal installer.
NOTE:

If the seal is improperly installed on the special tool, it will not install correctly.

5. Inspect the seal on EN-51369  seal installer, and ensure that the seal lip is not deformed. If necessary, remove the seal and reinstall on the special tool.
6. Assemble the EN-51369  seal installer components.
NOTE:

The special tool installs and establishes the proper depth of the seal in the crankshaft seal bore.

7. Use EN-51369  seal installer to press the new crankshaft seal into the housing. Ensure that the seal is installed in the crankshaft seal bore flush to 0.5 mm depth.
