How to replace the front crankshaft pulley and Crankshaft Seal on a Kia Sorento four-cylinder engine?

Remove the crankshaft pulley and note how the seal is installed, ensuring the new one is positioned to the same depth and orientation. Carefully pry the oil seal out of the cover using a seal puller or a large screwdriver, taking care not to damage the crankshaft or distort the cover; wrapping electrician's tape around the screwdriver tip can help prevent damage. Apply clean engine oil or multi-purpose grease to the outer edge of the new seal and install it in the cover with the lip facing inward, using a seal driver or a large socket and hammer to drive it into place, ensuring it enters the bore squarely and stops at the proper depth. Lubricate the pulley hub with clean engine oil and reinstall the crankshaft pulley, then install the retaining bolt and tighten it to the specified torque. The remainder of the installation follows the reverse order of removal.

How to replace the front Crankshaft Seal on a Kia Optima V6 engine?

As for the front crankshaft oil seal, here are the removing procedures, get rid of the timing belt and crankshaft sprocket, and you can take off the sensor ring along with the spacer at its back. Slowly open the seal with a screwdriver or a seal cutter being keen not to hurt the housing bore or the crankshaft since this will result to leaking with the new seal. Clean the bore in the engine and before installing the new seal they wipe the outer edge of the new seal with engine oil or multi-purpose grease and apply the same grease to the seal lip. A seal driver or a calibrated socket that is slightly smaller than the seal's outer diameter should be used to co tactly impact the new seal over the former seat with a hammer until it bottoms squarely and evenly with the original within which the spring should remain seated. Last, replace those components, which were unbolted to achieve access and crank the engine to look for the front seal oil leaks.
