CRANKSHAFT OIL SEAL -
REAR
REMOVAL
This must be done with the transmission removed
from the vehicle.
(1) Disconnect the negative battery cable.
(2) Raise and support the vehicle.
(3) Drain the engine oil.
NOTE: Loosen all of the oil pan bolts to assure that
the oil pan gasket is not damaged when removing
the rear main oil seal and end cover assembly.
NOTE: Inspect the oil pan gasket for damage. If the
oil pan gasket is damaged, remove the oil pan and
replace the oil pan gasket.
(4) Loosen the oil pan bolts.
(5) Remove the flywheel.
CAUTION: Care must be taken when removing the
rear main seal and adaptor assembly. Failure to do
so will result in damage to the oil pan gasket.
(6) Remove the rear main seal/adaptor retaining
bolts and carefully pry the adaptor from the crank-
case at the adaptor shoulders (Fig. 29).
INSTALLATION
NOTE: Thoroughly clean all mating surfaces with
the appropriate solvents to assure that no grease or
oil is present during reassembly.
NOTE: Carefully position the rear main seal/adaptor
evenly onto the assembly sleeve. The rear main oil
seal lip MUST NOT roll over the edge of the tool.
(1) Position the rear main oil seal/adaptor with
assembly sleeve onto the crankshaft so that the
dowel sleeves fit into the guide holes (Fig. 29). Care
must be taken so that the oil pan gasket is not dam-
aged.
