oil leak on my 3rd gen???
It seems like my rear seal might be leaking on my 3rd gen. Had it replaced at Pettit 2.2 years ago. How bad is this? I figured just a oil spot in my garage floor every few days, no big deal.. But is there anything serious that can come from this?? Leaks about 2-3 inch circle every 4-7 days. Not that bad but drives me crazy!

you may need a shaft saver if the flywheel is worn . Garfinkle fixed mine with one and he is going to do another one soon for a customer in Nashville . Her new seal will only last about 1 year . the shaft saver should make it last several years like mine'

fart on a friends head!!!
mike, you might as well replace the flywheel with a lightened one and get a new clutch if your gonna replace the rear main seal. i really dont understand why the rear main seal would have gone out that early though.
duboiser- please explain this "shaft saver". can it be done with the engine still assembled?

Turbobrain, I already have a act clutch with 9.5 flywheel in near new shape!! Thats when I had Cam replace the rear main seal...
I will look again but I first thought it was my turbos but they are fine and oil pan looks dry also. My next thought was the rear main seal. So looks like it will just leak for awhile. I am mainly just a neat freak and hate having a oil leak....
