All models employ a one piece rear Crankshaft Seal mounted in a bolt-in housing and the only way to change this seal is to remove the transaxle and drive plate. The rear Crankshaft Seal and housing are considered as the seal and its housing, and they are serviced together; this calls for several tools. The first takes involves the separation of the transaxle, the oil pan as well as the driveplate. Subsequently, undo the rear Crankshaft Seal housing bolts and this housing. Wipe the crankshaft with clean oil and then place the new oil seal housing on the crankshaft, do not take off the protector that comes with the seal and housing until it is time to install the fully, as it will be used to push out when necessary to fit the oil seal protector. Once more the oil seal housing is bolted to the crankshaft and the bolts are slightly tightened proper alignment tools are secured on the oil pan rails. When applying the pressure on the oil seal housing, fasten the oil seal housing retainer bolts to the prescribed torque and make sure that the housing sits perfectly flat with the oil pan mating surface of the engine so as to avoid oil leaks. As for the rest of the installation, it is done in the reverse order to the removal.

Reinstall by reversing the removal steps, and tap the dowel pin back into the crankshaft with 3/64-inch extending out.

All models use a one-piece rear main oil seal installed in a bolt-on housing.

Check the balancer hub surface for grooves from long-term contact with the seal; if present, the balancer will need replacement.

Lubricate the balancer hub with clean engine oil.

It should be noted that the rear main oil seal is incorporated into the seal retainer and must be replaced as a unit.

Remove the crankshaft balancer.

It is important to avoid scratching, gouging, or distorting the area where the seal fits, as this could lead to an oil leak.

Yes, applying a small amount of oil to the outer edge of the new seal can facilitate installation, but it should not be excessive.

Drive the new seal in using a seal driver or a large deep socket and hammer, ensuring it is installed to the same depth as the old one.

Remove the plastic installation sleeve, and then tighten the bolts using an alternating pattern to the specified torque.

Install the seal retainer bolts without fully tightening them.

Use a seal driver to tap the seal into place to ensure it doesn't become tilted.

The rear main seal and housing are serviced as one complete assembly.

The first step is to remove the crankshaft pulley from the engine.

Support the cover on two blocks of wood and drive the seal out from the backside with a hammer and punch, taking care not to scratch or distort the area where the seal fits to prevent leaks.

Use a screwdriver or hook tool to carefully pry out the seal, taking care not to damage the oil pump cover bore or the crankshaft's nose and sealing surface.

An alternative method involves drilling small holes on each side of the seal and inserting self-tapping screws, which can then be used with pliers to pull the seal out.

The outlined procedure should be followed while using the appropriate bolt torque value.

The first step is to remove the transaxle and then the driveplate.

Replacing the rear main oil seal requires the removal of the transaxle and driveplate.

The remainder of the installation is the reverse of removal.

A hammer and punch are used to tap the dowel pin out of the crankshaft, driving it into the hollow, threaded area of the crankshaft snout for extraction with a small magnet.

Yes, several special tools are required.
