Part: Engine
Operation: How to fit an oil seal.

To perform this operation it is necessary to insert a flat head screwdriver between the oil seal and the camshaft; once inserted, we will have to gently pry, until the piece is extracted. At this point we will clean the affected part, before proceeding with the assembly. We take the new oil seal and apply grease on the inside that will come into contact with the camshaft; let's position it correctly (check that the small cuts on the edge follow the direction of rotation correctly) and put a socket wrench on the outside. Now we will have to hammer, with a rubber mallet until full insertion. To insert the crankshaft oil seal, on the other hand, since it is larger than those of the camshaft, we will not be able to use the socket wrench; we will then use the rubber hammer directly.
