Detailed Description

Continental CS13987 is an engine camshaft seal made for front-position applications on select Acura models. The Viton construction is used for its resistance to heat and fluid exposure, helping maintain a stable seal where the camshaft passes through the engine housing. This makes it a practical replacement for Acura Legend, Acura TL, and Acura RL models that require a 35x50x9.5 mm front camshaft seal. If you are searching for a front camshaft seal for 1991-1995 Acura Legend, 1996-1998 Acura TL, or 1996-2004 Acura RL, this part number provides a focused OE-style replacement option.

This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application.

Common Problems It Can Help Address

• Oil seepage around the camshaft seal area
• Loss of engine oil from a worn front seal
• Contamination of surrounding engine components from leaking oil
• Reduced sealing performance caused by age, heat, or wear
• Need for a replacement front camshaft seal during engine service

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the seal dimensions before installation: 35x50x9.5 mm. Confirm the application by year, make, model, and front position before ordering. Clean the sealing surface thoroughly and inspect the camshaft and housing for wear or damage that could affect sealing performance. Proper installation technique is important to avoid damaging the Viton lip during fitment.
