proxlamus© Posted May 12, 2006 Share Posted May 12, 2006 Ok.. I noticed oil dripping only when running from my engine.. I looked and saw oil dripping from the oil pump... simple.. change the gasket.. well I did that.. it's still leaking.. but from where?? ahhh the front crank pulley seal.. well.. I checked it and it's fine.. no cracks or anything.. and on top of that the new one I was going to install was the WRONG seal.. now the oil pan gasket is fine.. but I am very confused.. it's very difficult to tell where the leak is, because the oil is dripping onto the pulley.. which is being slung by centrifugal force all over the timing cover.. any ideas?

TheNeedForZ Posted May 12, 2006 Share Posted May 12, 2006 Maybe you can stop oil from dripping on the pulley first. Dust chalk powder in the area and see where the powder is carried away by oil leak? There are UV leak detector too but I don't think you'll want that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
