Fixing damn oil leaks
I seem 2 have an oil leak or 2 in the rebuilt engine. One leak seems 2 be coming from where the timing chain cover snugs up to the oil pan. just to be sure, im gonna change the whole timing chain cover seal and pan gasket. The other leak seems to be coming from the back of the engine somehwere, but i cant seem 2 locate it. im gonna pull the intake, valve covers, and anything esle i can think off and re-seal everything. any suggestions before i get things torn apart? what about gasket and seal brands? can the pan be dropped without removing the engine from the chassis? second, can anyone maybe suggest where the oil is coming from at the back of the enigne? seems to be coming down from above the bellhousing because the oil is building up on the bottom of the pan on the tranny. i cant imagine what it is. i really hope it istn the rear seal. but anyway, any thoughts/suggestions are definetly appreciated.
thanx in advance dale
