Rear Crankshaft Oil Seal — replacement (Mazda Capella GF)

1. To perform this work it is necessary to remove the transmission (see chapter 7).

2. Remove the flywheel (faceplate) (see paragraph 14).

3. Cut the cuff around the circumference with a sharp knife.

4. Bake the pieces of the willow one by one (to avoid damaging the crankshaft, wrap the tool you use to remove the oil seal with tape) (figure 15.4).



5. Lubricate the working surfaces of the new seal and crankshaft with engine oil. Insert the cuff into place and press it into the crankcase flush with the crankcase plane through a mandrel of a suitable diameter (figure 15.5).



6. Install the flywheel/faceplate (see paragraph 14).

7. The remaining actions are performed in the reverse order of disassembly.
