Hi,

My understanding is that it's design (profile) and perhaps it's material composition make it more pliable and better able to adapt to a Crankshaft opening in the Block which is not exactly centered on the Crank's spin axis.

But, it still amounts to only a better Band-Aid and I am a little skeptical because I don't think this latest fix has racked up that many miles to be deemed a once-and-for-all fix of the issue. We can only hope...

Happy Motoring!... Jim'99
