AS typically refers to a standard design for radial shaft seals, often indicating a single-acting seal with a garter spring and a lip designed for sealing against rotation.
The dust lip is an additional sealing lip on the outer side of the main sealing lip. Its purpose is to prevent dirt, dust, and other contaminants from entering the sealing area, thus prolonging the seal's life and protecting the engine components.
Installation of a crankshaft seal requires specific tools and mechanical knowledge. If you are not experienced with engine internal repairs, it is recommended to have a qualified mechanic perform the installation.
Common signs include oil leaks around the crankshaft pulley or the front/rear of the engine where the crankshaft exits the block. You might also notice oil on the exterior of the engine or drips under the vehicle.
The 'swirl type right-hand twist' refers to the specific helical pattern molded into the sealing lip. This pattern is designed to help pump any minor oil leakage back into the crankcase, enhancing the seal's effectiveness, especially in applications with right-hand rotating crankshafts.
Warranty information is typically provided by the retailer at the point of sale. Elring products are generally manufactured to high standards, but specific warranty terms should be confirmed with your supplier.
Verify the correct seal was used and installed to the correct depth. Inspect the crankshaft's sealing surface for damage or wear. Ensure the seal was not damaged during installation and that the dust lip is properly seated.
Ensure you are using the correct size seal for the application and that the appropriate installation tools are being used. The crankshaft sealing surface should be clean and free of obstructions.
Check for excessive crankshaft end play or wobble. Ensure the engine is not overheating, as extreme temperatures can degrade seal materials. Confirm correct oil type and level are maintained.
Compatibility: This Elring Crankshaft Seal (903.070) is designed to replace the following OEM part numbers:
Always verify your vehicle's specific OEM part number against this list before purchase. The seal has an Inner Diameter of 50mm, Outer Diameter of 62mm, and a Height of 7mm.
Setup: Installation requires mechanical expertise. The crankshaft pulley must be removed to access the crankshaft seal. It is recommended to use appropriate seal installation tools to press the new seal in evenly and to the correct depth. Ensure the sealing surface on the crankshaft is clean and free of burrs or damage before installation. Lubricate the seal lip lightly with clean engine oil before installation.
Care: This is a sealed component designed for long-term use within the engine. No routine maintenance is required for the seal itself. However, regular oil changes and maintaining correct oil levels are essential for overall engine health, which indirectly impacts the longevity of the crankshaft seal.
