Rear man seal leak??? HELP ASAP
I have a leak from the rear of the motor which I thought was the rear main seal, but the seal is bone dry. All the oil looks like it is coming from the center of the crank where pilot bearing is. As far as I know the pilot bearing is supposed to be installed flush with the face of the crank. Mine looks like it is 1/8 inch further in than it should be. Would this be causing oil to come out of the center of the crank? PLEASE HELP ASAP. I am swapping to a t56, and dont want to ruin a clutch, and need to know if this needs to go back to my engine builder.
