AI caption · Photo 72 of 412

This is page EM-18 of a Nissan engine service manual (Engine Mechanical section) covering oil seal replacement procedures. The left column details replacement of the camshaft oil seal in six steps: remove the thermostat housing (with an illustration labeling the distributor, fuel pump, water outlet, and cylinder head — figure SEM030B), remove the camshaft pulley using special tool KV10109900 (figure SEM034B), remove the bolt stopper (figure SEM993), remove the rocker shaft with rocker arms, remove the camshaft (figure SEM031B), and replace the camshaft oil seal with a new one. The right column covers replacement of the crankshaft front oil seal in five steps: remove the timing belt and cover, lift the engine and remove the oil pan, remove the main bearing cap (referring the reader to the Crankshaft section), remove the crankshaft oil seal (figure SEM003A shows the oil seal location on the crankshaft nose), and replace the crankshaft front oil seal with a new one. The page was uploaded as documentation for a 1990 Nissan Micra; the page itself does not state a model or year. A reader learns the disassembly sequence and special tool number required for these seal replacements, though no torque values are given on this page.
