First of all, remove the engine/transmission assembly and transaxle. Remove the drive plate. The Crankshaft Seal can be replaced without removing the oil pan or seal retainer. Use a seal-removal tool or a knife to cut the lip off the old Crankshaft Seal, avoiding scratching the crankshaft. Lubricate the new Crankshaft Seal and crankshaft seal journal with grease. Drive the new Crankshaft Seal into the container with a wood block or pipe. Installation is the reverse of removal.

The remainder of the installation is the reverse of the removal process.

Run the engine and check for oil leaks at the front seal.

The new seal can be driven into place using a seal driver or a large socket and a hammer. It is important to ensure that the seal enters the bore squarely and stops when the front face is at the proper depth.

Install the flywheel or driveplate.

Lubricate the outside diameter of the seal and install the seal over the end of the crankshaft, making sure the lip of the seal points toward the engine.

The first step is to remove the engine/transmission assembly from the vehicle.

Wrap tape around the tip of the screwdriver to avoid scratching the housing bore or damaging the crankshaft, as this could cause the new seal to leak.

Lubricate the outside diameter of the seal and install the seal over the end of the crankshaft, ensuring the lip of the seal points toward the engine. Preferably, use a seal installation tool to press the new seal back into place. If the tool is unavailable, use a large socket, section of pipe, or a blunt tool to carefully drive the new seal squarely into the seal bore and flush with the edge of the engine block.

The crankshaft seal journal and the lip of the new seal should be lubricated with multi-purpose grease.

Reinstall the crankshaft pulley, tightening the bolt to the specified torque.

Install the crankshaft pulley retaining bolt and tighten it.

Clean the bore in the engine and coat the outer edge of the new seal with engine oil or multi-purpose grease. Apply the same grease to the seal lip.

Install the transaxle to the engine, then install the engine/transaxle assembly.

Carefully pry the oil seal out of the cover with a seal puller or a large screwdriver. Be very careful not to damage the crankshaft in the process and avoid distorting the cover or scratching the crankshaft. It is recommended to wrap electrician's tape around the tip of the screwdriver to prevent damage.
