Detailed Description

This Timken automatic transmission output shaft seal, part number 224066, is engineered for the sealing demands of the transmission case and output shaft interface. It is designed for right-side applications on 1990-2002 Honda Accord, 1997-1999 Acura CL, 1988-1999 Honda Prelude, and 1995-1998 Honda Odyssey. The seal’s reinforced construction, ribbed inner diameter, and contamination-exclusion features support a secure fit and consistent sealing performance in service.

This part cross-references National 224066 and SKF 15891 for the same application. Timken 224066 is a practical replacement choice when servicing Honda Accord, Prelude, or Odyssey transmission leaks at the output shaft area.

Common Problems This Seal Can Address

• Transmission fluid leaking from the output shaft area
• Contamination entering the transmission through a worn seal opening
• Seal damage caused by installation stress or housing wear
• Heat-related seal deterioration around the shaft lip
• Improper sealing from minor shaft surface imperfections

Installation Notes and Tips

• Confirm right-side fitment before installation.
• Inspect the shaft and housing bore for wear, scoring, or corrosion before pressing in the new seal.
• Lubricate the seal lip with clean transmission fluid during installation.
• Use proper seal-driving tools to avoid distorting the reinforced outer case.
• Verify the CW helix orientation matches the application.
