Review on ๐Ÿ”ง High-Quality GM Genuine Parts Front Crankshaft Engine Oil Seal - 12582313 by Eric Basler

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Buick Lacrosse 2007 3.8 liter

Easy installation. And much better than the original gasket in the metal frame. I just lubricated the edge lightly with motor oil. I haven't messed around with the RTV thin film as is usually done with a standard metal gasket. The new gasket is rubber/viton coated around the perimeter to seal without damage. 2007 Buick Lacrosse CXL. Auto Detachable 3.8L Multi-V Belt - Harmonic Dampener Removal My harmonic dampener removal tool will not work with an OEM dampener. But you need 1/4-28 screws that are at least 4 inches long. I ended up using a shorter 1/4-28 bolt and threading it into the shock. with hook or screwdriver. Be careful not to scratch the surfaces - Lubricate the new gasket with engine oil. Use the plastic tool that comes with the kit to plant it. the tool does it. - put the rest of the components back in place and you're done. I didn't even drain the engine oil before.

Pros
