I've already changed the crank oil seal 3 times in this month. At third time a workshop also applied a glue around the seal. But it's still leaking. Please help me, is there any problem.

Hello,

The crankshaft seals shouldn't need anything like glue around them. If they keep failing I would inspect the crankshaft for out of round or maybe there is a burr or high spot on the end of it that is causing the crankshaft seal to fail. Please keep us informed.

Thanks,
Alex
