NOTE: Do not use any kind of lubricant to install the seal.
The oil seal must be installed with the lip of the oil seal and the crankshaft clean and dry to ensure proper oil sealing.
NOTE: The combination crankshaft oil seal (A)/wear sleeve (B) replacement kit for service usage is installed on the
crankshaft as an assembly. The crankshaft rear oil seal should not be removed from the crankshaft rear seal wear
sleeve.
Install the rear cover and gasket.
NOTE: Install the rear cover capscrews. Do not tighten. If the oil pan is installed, loosen the oil pan capscrews to allow clearance for rear cover and gasket clearance.
NOTE: The seal installation is being used to properly align the rear cover. Do not push or force the cover in any direction to prevent irregular seal lip position after seal installation.
NOTE: The oil seal for a wet flywheel housing requires soap on the outside diameter of the seal case. Nothing is required on the outside diameter of the seal case for dry housings.
Use a service tool, Part No. 3824078, to install oil seal/wear sleeve assembly. Install two (2) threaded studs into
the crankshaft capscrew holes.
Apply a small amount of clean 15W-40 engine oil to the crankshaft, threaded studs, and inside diameter of the
crankshaft rear seal/wear sleeve installation tool.
Position the chamfered end of the wear sleeve (A) onto the end of the crankshaft (B). Position the counterbore end of
installation tool (C) over threaded studs and align with wear sleeve, perpendicular to the end of the crankshaft.
Install the washers (D) and nuts (E) onto the threaded studs.
Alternately tighten the nuts until the installation tool contacts the end of the crankshaft.
NOTE: Do not exceed 1/2 revolution of each nut to prevent wear sleeve binding and irregular stretch.
