The seal body stays stationary while its sealing lip rides on the rotating crankshaft, which helps hold engine oil inside the crankcase. Signs this part may need replacing include oil drips or wetness where the engine meets the transmission, oil residue around the bellhousing area, and a steadily dropping oil level. Other gaskets can leak into the same area, so diagnose the source of the leak before replacing the seal. Follow the vehicle service information for the removal and installation procedure and torque specifications.
