Accepted Answer

To replace the Crankshaft rear oil seal, start by removing the engine Flywheel without damaging the Crankshaft or seal bore. Then, after you've removed as much of the old grease as you can, pry out the Crankshaft rear oil seal by inserting, at an angle, through the dust lip, the flat-bladed tool while moving, the handle towards the end of the Crankshaft, repeating if old as many times as you can. Before installation, make sure that no oil lubrication is put on the Crankshaft rear oil seal and on the seal installer (J34686), and during the process of removing the protective sleeve off the sealing lip do not touch it to avoid damaging it. Clean Crankshaft sealing surface using a lint-free towel and looking at the lead-in edge for burrs and sharp edges, eliminate these using crocus cloth. Prcisely lift off the protective sleeve from the new Crankshaft rear oil seal and slip in it into the j34686, slidding it over the mandrel till it fastens against the collar. Splint the dowel pin of the j34686 with the dowel pin of Crankshaft attach tool hand or screw to 5 nm (45 inch lbs.) and t handle to compress the seal into the bore until the collar is tight against the engine block be certain to provide implement seating. Unscrew the t-handle until it cannot be unscrewed any further, then remove the attaching screws and finally reinstall the engine Flywheel.
