need help! oil leak, stranded at my dorm room!
info on the truck first, it got a 92 350, with th350. now for the problem, Ive had a small rear main seal leak for awhile, atleast thats what ive suspected and have been told by acouple mechanics(which i dont trust to much). today i went out to the parking lot to wire in my license plate lamp and started the truck up and moved if forward about a foot. about 30 min later i started it again. i get back under the truck and see two big oil spills from the 2 places where it started up, with a trail of dots going from one spot to the other. my first thought was i blew the rear main seal. i took the dust cover off and the only spot with oil comming down is on the oil filter??? i dont know to much about engines and im hoping its not the rear main seal. and i def. dont want to be doing this in a dorm parking lot. any ideas of what it could be or what i need to do? sorry for the long post but ive used the search for the past two hours and found alot of usefull info on what to do to replace a rear main seal but didnt find any problems like mine. thanks in advance for the replys.
