| Description | Tool Number |
|---|---|
| Crankshaft Damper Remover | T58P-6316-D |
| Damper/Front Cover Seal Installer | T82L-6316-A |
| Vibration Damper Remover Adapter | T82L-6316-B |
Removal
Leaving hoses connected, place power steering pump (3A674) and bracket aside in a position to prevent fluid from leaking out.
NOTE: If the crankshaft pulley vibration damper and pulley have to be separated, mark the damper and pulley so that they may be reassembled in the same relative position. This is important, as the damper and pulley are initially balanced as a unit.
NOTE: If the vibration damper is being replaced, check if the original vibration damper has balance pins installed. If so, new balance pins (E0SZ-6A328-A or equivalent) must be installed on the new vibration damper in the same position as the original vibration damper. The pulley (new or original) must also be installed in the same relative position as originally installed.

CAUTION: The engine front cover cannot be removed without lowering the oil pan.
CAUTION: Do not overlook the engine front cover retaining bolt located behind
the oil pump and filter body. The engine front cover will break if pried upon
and all retaining bolts are not removed.
Installation
NOTE: Lightly oil all bolt and stud threads before installation except those specifying special sealant.
If reusing engine front cover, replace crankshaft front seal (6700) .
NOTE: Gasket and Trim Adhesive D7AZ-19B508-B or equivalent meeting Ford specifications ESR-M11P17-A and ESE-M2G52-A is recommended to hold the engine timing cover gasket in position while the engine front cover is installed.

NOTE: When using silicone rubber sealer, assembly must occur within 15 minutes after sealer application. After this time, the sealer may start to set-up, and its sealing effectiveness may be reduced.
CAUTION: The engine has aluminum cylinder heads and requires a special
corrosion-inhibited coolant formulation to avoid cooling system damage. Refer
to Section 03-03 for coolant specifications.
