INSTALLATION
The seal surface on the block should be dry. Apply a light coat of oil to the crankshaft and to the lip of the seal.
1. Drive the crankshaft oil seal squarely into the right side cover using the special tools.
2. Confirm that the clearance is equal all the way around with a feeler gauge.
Clearance: 0.5 - 0.8 mm (0.02 - 0.03 inch)
NOTE: Refer to Front Crankshaft Seal / Service and Repair for installation of the oil pump side crankshaft oil seal.
