uh, um, WHERE is it leaking, and what is it leaking? I've replaced my rear pinion seal twice, and it's still seeping. second time, we replaced the yoke aswell. my suggestion on the pinion seal is just watch your diff fluid level and don't waste your time or $$ fixing it, cuz it just seems to want to keep seeping.

It's oil, Right now it looks like it is leaking from the the rear/right side of the engine above the starter. I am going to have to clean the area up and then check it out, to much oil in the area, to really find out where it's coming from.

Really don't want to just let it leak like that[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img] Don't like oil drops on the driveway or in the street. Maybe a diaper underneath the engine compartment would work[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img] Nah[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-disgusted.gif[/img]

YIKES![img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-frown.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-disgusted.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img] I don't like the sounds of that MD!! You're on the right track to get it cleaned up firsat, and then re-assess. You'll also help the mechanic pin-point it easier, so you only pay for the seal/gasket that needs replacing. Once you've got it done, let us all know, so we can keep an eye on ours!!

I don't like the sound of it either[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img] Pocket book has gone and buried it's head in the sand[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img] afraid of what the damages might be to it too[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-frown.gif[/img] I'll probably focus on it next week after the holidays, or maybe I'll wait until the kids 2 week vacation is over[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img] have some riding we want to do[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] However, if the drops get bigger or more frequent[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img] I'll address it right away. What timing[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img]
