2. Measure the depth of the oil seal in the socket, then carefully remove the oil seal using a screwdriver or a special puller. Do not break the oil seal guide or damage the crankshaft surface to avoid oil leaks. If you use a screwdriver to remove the oil seal, we recommend wrapping it with insulating tape.
3. Clean the seal housing seating surface and lubricate the mating surfaces of the new seal with engine oil.
4. Using a socket or a pipe with an outside diameter slightly smaller than the outside diameter of the seal as a drift, carefully tap the new seal into the seat. Try to install the new seal to the same depth as the old one.

5. Install the camshaft timing pulley and drive belt (see Section 7).
6. Start the engine and check for leaks through the front oil seal with the oil temperature close to operating temperature.
