If there are curved seals, fit these to the engine. Smear sealant on the seal groove, stick the seal in place, and apply a blob of sealant to each end of the seal where it joins the gasket.
3. Lubricate the Oil Seal


When installed, the oil seal’s flexible lip is placed against the rotating shaft, and the casing is pushed into the housing for support. It is crucial that the sealing lip is lubricated to avoid overheating caused by friction.

In addition to preventing oil leakage, the piston oil seal also helps to reduce friction between the piston and the cylinder wall. This is important for maximizing engine efficiency and prolonging the life of the engine components. By reducing friction, the seal helps to improve fuel economy and reduce wear and tear on the engine.

Smear a little gasket sealant round the cover flange and fit the new gasket to it. Make sure it is flat and straight.
