1 Answers
Ford Focus crankshaft rear oil seal installation method is as follows: 1. First, rotate the crankshaft pulley to the position of the first cylinder. There is a small dot on the crankshaft pulley that should align with the longest protruding strip on the front oil seal housing. Maintain this position and then install the crankshaft rear oil seal. Note that there is a small dot on the crankshaft rear oil seal housing that should align with the empty point on the pulley when installing it onto the crankshaft. 2. The crankshaft seal is located inside the crankshaft pulley, while the crankshaft rear oil seal is at the flywheel connection between the engine and the transmission. 3. After assembling the crankshaft into the cylinder block, install the main bearing caps. Before installing the rear main bearing cap, apply sealant to the rear part of the mating surface, then tighten according to the specified torque, which is the tightening torque for the main bearing cap bolts. 4. After assembling the crankshaft, when installing the crankshaft rear oil seal, use a special tool to press the crankshaft rear oil seal into place from the rear end of the crankshaft.
