Crankshaft Pulley: Installation

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2010 Ford Pickup and 2010 Ford Cab & Chassis. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

NOTE: If not secured within 4 minutes, the sealant must be removed and the sealing area cleaned with metal surface prep and silicone gasket remover. Allow to dry until there is no sign of wetness, or 4 minutes, whichever is longer. Failure to follow this procedure can cause future oil leakage.
