contaminated with moisture or any other particle. But the same oil will only last for a month at 212 degrees Fahrenheit if it’s contaminated with little water. This is why the function of an oil seal is very evident whenever it’s used.
Finding oil spots under a parked vehicle can be both worrying and stressful for any vehicle owner. If the seal’s leak is small, oil may start to accumulate on the underside of the engine. But as the leak gets bigger, the oil leak will become visible in the front side of the engine.

However, rubber-cased seals do have limitations. For example, during installation, shear stresses can build up between the seal and housing wall, causing the seal to release itself.
