shitty thing about that seal is you have to pull about your entire subframe and get the tranny off at least with the front main (crank pulley seal) you just have to pull that bolt and the pulley out (i had that go bad just a few weeks ago )

 

An even shittier thing about the seal is that it can't seal if it's not there to seal.

 

Are you sure its the rear main seal. A lot of oil can leak down the back of the motor when the cam position sensor is removed.

 

that.,...is...shitty!

im about to pull my motor in the next few weeks and replace my bottom end (cheaper then going through it)...should be fun

 

Extremely sure.
It wasn't there.

 

Oh, I see. I didn't realize that was a serious statement. That's rather unfortunate.

 

Yea, no ****. lol
luckily it was only ran for a very short time before the leak was noticed.

 

sounds good that you got it running take your time fixxing it man you dont want to take it apart for a 3rd time!
