any ideas? leaking oil again after I shut her off and I see drops everywhere I park it. I have replaced the seals and gasket twice but it sits and didn't use silicon on the gasket.

I want this to be the last time I do this.

 

you may need a sleeve around your crank hub. I had the same problem. I got tired of screwing around with it and had a shop install a sleeve and it has not leaked since.

 

I think I have that sleeve. maybe I need to inspect that

Make sure you have the water pump drive seal installed properly.

You need to find out just where it is leaking from. Then, it can be addressed.

 

nice write up!

 

a chrome 13mm snapon socket works well to get the wp drive seal in correctly also. thats what I use.

 

Where would i buy the sleeve for the crank ?
