where the seal contacts, press the seal into the
bore an additional 2 mm (.080 in.).

nent and must be replaced as an assembly. Only the
crankshaft seal is serviceable. When replacing the oil
pump, install a new oil seal (proceed to Installing).

engine block.
2. Make sure the oil pump drive key in the crankshaft
is in the 3 o’clock position; then locate the oil
pump inner rotor keyway in the 3 o’clock position
as viewed from the crankshaft seal.

completely onto the key.
