Illustration 1g00664588

The front oil seal (2) is normally installed to a depth of 7.00 ± 0.25 mm (0.2756 ± 0.0098 inch) (A) from the face of the front oil seal housing (6). The oil seal may cause wear on the hub of crankshaft pulley (3). This wear may allow oil leakage past the oil seal. If this situation occurs, the front oil seal can be installed to a depth of 9.3 mm (0.37 inch) from the face of the front oil seal housing.

If a wear sleeve (4) is installed, the front oil seal is installed to a depth of 9.30 mm (0.366 inch) from the face of the front oil seal housing. When the wear sleeve is installed, the flange of the wear sleeve does not require removal. If a wear sleeve is installed, a new front oil seal must be installed.
