installing my d16z6 brand new rear main seal came to find out something.

Is there supposed to have a slight gap in/ between the rear seal lip to where it sits on the crank???


if so how much seal lip is there supposed to have.
i noticed the top part of the seal has like a slight gap compared to looking at the bottom of the seal/

i installed it correctly and made sure all springs where in looks okay but just the slight gap i noticed... more on the upper part.

is there supossed to have like a slight gap..????

please let me know thanks...

any 1 know if this is normal?? BUMP..

im assuming that the crank sits weight at the bottom and less at the top??

nub

The seal should be making full contact ll the way around the crank. If you have a gap it's going to leak.
