Oil Pan and seal retainer to be removed; care is required due to the toughness of the lip of the new seal which can be easily distorted leading to improper fits. Using a flat head screwdriver, remove the old seal gently without harming the crankshaft surface since it will cause leakages when using the new seal.

Insert with the help of a socket, section of pipe or the tool used for seal installation taking much care on the stiff lip on the seal journal without much strain.
