About the piece:
The Front and Rear Main Seals are important components of the engine sealing system. The front seal is installed at the front of the engine, where the crankshaft connects to the pulleys, while the rear seal is installed where the crankshaft connects to the transmission. Their main function is to prevent oil from leaking out of the engine and maintain internal oil pressure.
Its function:
- Oil leak prevention: It works to seal around the crankshaft to prevent oil leakage from the engine.
- Engine and gearbox protection: Prevents oil leaks from reaching surrounding parts, keeping operation clean and efficient.
- Oil pressure guarantee: It helps maintain oil pressure inside the machine to ensure optimum lubrication.
Symptoms of damage:
- Oil leak: Notice oil spots under the front or rear of the vehicle.
- Burning oil smell: Oil leaking into surrounding hot parts.
- Abnormal noise: Squeaking or grinding noises may indicate a lack of oil due to a leak.
