Most likely it isn't your pan that's leaking but rather your rear main seal. If you elect to change the seal, check the face (surface) of the crank and ensure it isn't nicked, grooved, etc. Most will end up requiring a seal-saver. Both FelPro and ROL make them.<br /><br />In the future, state the year/make/model and try to be a little more specific with your question. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="wink.gif" /> <br /><br />Cobraracer- dude, seriously...lighten up... <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#f7f7f7"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> <b>cobraracer46</b> <br /><small>Member # 1142</small> </font></td> <td width="82%"> <font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial"> <img src="https://californiafords.com/ubb/posticon.gif" border="0" alt=" - " /> posted <script language="JavaScript1.3" type="text/javascript"> document.writeln(timestamp(new Date(2009,4,8,13,19,0), dfrm, tfrm, 0, 0, 0, 0)); </script><hr /> </font> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> </font><blockquote><font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial">quote:</font><hr /><font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial">Originally posted by JohnB:<br /><strong> <br /><br />Cobraracer- dude, seriously...lighten up... </strong></font><hr /></blockquote><font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial">I'll try my best to lighten the fuck up.<br /> <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="biggrin.gif" /> <br /> </font> </td></tr> </table></td></tr></table> <br /> <br />
