Front oil seal
Remove the crankshaft sprocket.
On 1.8L and 2.0L engines, remove the rear timing belt cover. On twin cam engines, remove the spacer washer from the end of the crankshaft.
Punch a small hole in the seal. Screw in a self-tapping screw and carefully pull the screw out with pliers together with the seal (it may take several attempts). Use a wooden or plastic scraper to remove dirt from the oil seal seat.
Place a thin strip of tape on the end of the crankshaft, apply a coat of grease to the lips of the new seal and position it flush with the surface of the pump housing using a bushing or tube. Remove the tape from the shaft.
On twin cam engines, apply a coat of sealant to the oil pump spacer washer surface (Vauxhall/Opel N 15 04 200 or equivalent), then slide the washer onto the shaft until it stops.
On 1.8L and 2.0L engines, install the rear timing belt cover. Where required, install the woodruff key and install the crankshaft sprocket.
Rear oil seal
Remove the flywheel/drive plate. After screwing in the screw, remove the seal and clean its seat.
Apply grease to the lips of the new seal, then install it so that it is flush with the cylinder block end face and the rear main bearing cap. Install the flywheel/drive plate.
