How to Service the Rear Crankshaft Seal on Ford Escape?

Start the crankshaft rear seal service by placing the vehicle in neutral position on a hoist. Pull out the flexplate or flywheel before extracting all engine oil and installing the drain plug with a torque of 28 Nm (21 lb-ft). The entire process of removing the oil pan becomes essential since it protects the rear oil seal retainer joint from damage; thus 17 bolts need to be taken out. You need to take off the six bolts which anchor the crankshaft rear oil seal with its retainer plate. The crankshaft rear main oil seal installer helps install the crankshaft rear oil seal with retainer plate onto the crankshaft by combining with torque the specified bolts to 10 Nm (89 lb-in) while following a specific bolt tightening sequence. A plastic scraping instrument should be used for cleansing sealing surfaces in order to stop scratches that might trigger leaks. Uncapped oil pans must be cleaned of the sealant so the specified surface preparation process for metal products can take place following complete drying. Stipulate the appropriate procedure which consists of using a 2.5 mm (0.09 in) bead of silicone gasket and sealant to the oil pan followed by bolt installation finger-tight then full-tightening to 10 Nm (89 lb-in). The final step includes installing all remaining oil pan bolts while following the specified tightening sequence to 25 Nm (18 lb-ft). Then reattach the flexplate or flywheel before putting clean engine oil into the machine.
