Key Features & Benefits

Basically, this little rubber ring keeps oil in and dirt out. It seals the space between the crankshaft – which is a major moving part inside your engine – and the engine block. It’s a pretty simple part, but it does a crucial job. Think of it as a barrier that prevents engine oil from leaking out where the crankshaft comes out of the engine. It’s positioned right where the crankshaft exits the engine block. The crankshaft is what turns and ultimately powers everything, so this seal has to handle constant rotation and a little bit of stress. It’s a core component of the engine’s lower end, and there’s one on the front and often one on the rear of the crankshaft.

Symptoms, Risks & Replacements

Well, if this seal fails, you’ll start leaking oil. That’s the big one. At first, it might just be a small drip, but it can quickly become a pretty significant leak. Low oil levels can obviously cause major engine damage – you’re talking about parts not getting properly lubricated, overheating…the whole nine yards. You’ll notice if it's leaking – usually as a puddle under the front or rear of your vehicle, or you’ll smell burning oil. Replacing it is a lot cheaper than rebuilding an engine. You can find these pretty easily, Fixparts Online has a good selection if you’re looking for one, but it’s definitely a part you want to address quickly if it starts to go bad. It acts like a shield protecting vital engine components.
