Rear Main Seal orientation

Why are you being such an ***?

He didn't "tell us why." Those bearings are flat BURNED. That doesn't look like 8500 miles, it looks like 185000 miles

"Spending other peoples money on the internet."

It doesn't cost very much to inspect an engine that is already apart and make God Dammed sure it won't have to come apart again soon--quite possibly in a violent manner.

Calm down firecracker. You automatically assume I am pointing my finger at you? You guilty of something? Lol

If you read his postings the engine has lasted him 10 Years. It will last another 10 by replacing the bearings, pump and pickup. I have been here before and done the same and sometimes even worse when I was younger. I know what the results will be from experience. Take it or leave it!:D

The crank has no scarring either........

You guys think he hasn't inspected the engine while it is apart? Lol on that one too!
