Front Crankshaft Seal: Service and Repair

REPLACEMENT NOTES




- Always replace the o-ring when replacing the seal.
- Inspect the crankshaft pulley for a groove where the seal lip rides.
- The new replacement seal may be thinner than the one you are removing. This is so that the seal lip will not sit in the same groove.
