The "Edge"rear main seal article from May 1990
was "Chrysler Slant-Six and Big Block Rear Seal Leaks" by Doug Anderson
lots of good tips
I just bought a Felpro rear main from Napa and it appears to be Viton (its orange)...The inward edge is far more pronounced than the one I installed which leaked.
Arghhh! I have a "back of the engine leak" that I haven't checked out on a hoist. Jack stands and bi-focals don't tell me much. Following your thread.Okay,
So I pulled the engine back out of the Dart after checking with dye to determine what was leaking. It looked like the oil was leaking from the oil pan gasket in the rear but after changing the gasket and reinstalling the engine I still have a leak! I can't get the oil pan off while it's in the car because the oil pan pickup is not allowing the pan to move forward. My question is is it feasible to loosen the K member while supporting the engine from the top with a hoist to gain the extra space I need? The oil pan is one of the 8 quart Milodons that bell out on the bottom. If any of you have a trick for removing the pan while in the car I'm all ears. This is the most frustrating experience of my life and I'm ready to drop the tools and wait until next year. Thanks for your help.
Too much crankcase pressure?Hate to say it but it sure seems that way.
I don't know...
Looks more brown than red.
I haven't dealt with rear main seals before, @yellow rose , does this look right to you?
