i took some pics today at work of my car , looks like i might have a oil leak on the front main seal ?

79101 miles and still looking good !!!







front seal ??? i fixed the belt btw


leakage


tranny cooler lines have drips of oil .

strater has two drops of oil on it .





if you see any thing let me know thanks , other then that see pretty clean .

 

You have a leak all right. I have a rear main seal like. Been like that for about 3 years. I don't think mine is that severe.

 

That third pic looks exactly like my car underneath. Mine's been that way for a couple years, but it doesn't seem to be getting any worse. No puddle on the garage floor, just a few drops (but there never seem to be any new ones). I just wipe stuff off whenever I'm under there.

I like those wheels, BTW.

 

i love how my rims are hyper black chrome , makes them look black at some angles and chrome . ya this oil leak has been that way for probally 4-5 years now . and i dont loose any oil , and alny drip oil some times on the pavement .

 

dang u beat me, im at 79,321 miles and i also have a 94 z28 but i have the m6. Real nice shape your car is in. I have the exact same leak from the front main. not bad but it sure leaks. leaves a drop once every 3 times i park in my garage.

Is it really worth it takin the whole front apart to change that or how much do i need to take apart, i wish i could look underneath but i dont have a lift or a basement like you got in your shop.:blah:

 

yea i kno u lucky basterd lol

 

I dont think you need a lift to change the front main seal, all you really need to do is pull the front pully/hub then pop out old seal oil up new one slide her in then put it back together, shouldnt be too hard.

 

i might fix it one day , i wonder if i can insatll long tube headers within a hour or so . i can stand under neath and have some one else working up top too . with the underground basement set up , iam going do it one day . maybe this spring

 

Yeah, it should take an hour or so.

 

My leak looked similar to that-It was the waterpump and/or crank seal. After fixing it, that area remains dry. Always a good feeling

 

95% of lt1 leak there. nothing at all to worry about. inless you want to drop the oil pan, its not worth fixing.

 

ya plus thats probaly 5 years of build up , think its worth trying to shot alot of degreaser on and hose it off carefully , or u think ill get the opti spark wet ?

 

Wicked colour man.
