if it was bad, would i be leaking oil inbetween tranny/block? and behind it?

 

Rear main seal? we working on a v8 here?

 

if its your main u would be leakin from between block and tranny considering thats where the seal is... behind it is most likely the residual oil drippin back while you drive... and bakeoff ...that was a real constructive post...whore.... btw fix it soon crucial... u dont want it gettin on your flywheel and bukin up anything..

 

yes rear main seal....thats what its called..look it up.





ill take pics to show you where its leaking from/

 

^^^^^^

 

pics?

 

A REAR main seal is not on the REAR of the engine... That's what I posted as I did. It would be the MAIN seal in a transversely mounted engine. It's behind your flywheel where your crank comes out of the block. If you need help on pulling the tranny, let me know. I've done it about 85 times... EASY once you get it down.

 

im thinking its the REAR cam seal

 

just pulled off the valve cover and distributor, and the oring there isnt leaking. any other ideas?

 

how many miles are on the car???????
and what kind of oil r u running?
