Damaged Oil Seals???
How much does it cost to repair oil seals if your engine overheats? Also, what other damage may be caused if this were to happen? Are any other seals affected? Thanks in advance,
-Seth

The motor needs to be rebuilt. You can continue to drive with the bad oil seals, wont hurt a thing (except for the mosquitos in the area.)

OIl seals cost 50 bucks a pair. You need 4 pairs so a total of 200.00 to be exact. WWW.MAZDATRIX.COM
Obviously you need to rebuild the motor. YOu will also need new gaskets and probably better a new seals and springs..
