Oil seals close spaces between fixed and moving parts and protect all kinds of ball and roller bearings. They keep rotating shafts and bearings from pollution and corrosive materials, and also prevent lubricants, oils, and liquids from leakage. An oil seal can have a single lip, double lip and even triple lip, so single lip seal is one lip to seal around the shaft, double lip seal is two lips sealing around this, and triple lip seals have three lips to seal.
In addition to their longevity, iridium spark plugs also provide improved fuel efficiency and overall engine performance. The consistent and powerful spark produced by iridium spark plugs helps to optimize combustion in the engine, leading to better fuel economy and smoother acceleration. This can result in savings at the gas pump and a more enjoyable driving experience for car owners.
Remove the pump fixing nuts or bolts. Pull the pump and gasket or gaskets off the engine.
The quality of spark plugs can have a significant impact on your engine's performanceLeather Oil Seals - Leather Seals, also known as Type L Oil Seals, are most common in components that are subject to dirt and poor lubrication. Since they come pre-lubricated and are able to absorb fluids, leather oil seals are able to provide sealing properties in conditions that synthetic rubber is unable to.
There is a British Standard laid down for the control of synthetic rubbers. BS 3574 (1989) helps to determine shelf life – for instance, Nitrile (NBR) and Polyacrylic (ACM) are Group ‘B’ rubbers and have a 7-year life, whilst Silicone (VMQ) and Fluoroelastomers (Viton®) are Group ‘C’ rubbers and have a 10-year shelf life. PTFE and Leather do not come into this category but like the others should be kept in the original packing for as long as possible away from direct light, dust, and humidity. Ozone, which can also be produced by battery-driven forklift trucks has a very bad effect on synthetic rubbers. Finally, protect the sealing lip – DO NOT hang the seals on nails, wire etc.
