Rear main seal leakage is very common. Definitley replace it. I have put in a clutch from Napa and was happy with it. Seems like the price was $150 ish for the kit. Since the motor is out, are you going to replace some of the other seals? Be a good time to do it.

 

I'm replacing the entire engine with a reman from CCR, so I hope most of my seal problems will be taken care of. I'll check Napa on the clutch, thanks.

[Oil in bell housing]

Hi all,

 

I'm replacing the engine in my brothers 87 wagon, and when I pulled the engine, I noticed quite a bit of oil in the bellhousing. I know the rear main seal was leaking because it's soaking wet behind the flywheel, I also know this is pretty common. It almost looks like it's leaking from the trans input shaft also. Is that common? Is it just a matter of a seal and gasket replacement or is it more involved. Also, where can I get a good clutch? Napa? Autozone? Carquest? Are they pretty comprable? Price?

Thanks for the help.

 

This site is tremendously helpful by the way.

Their website works fine: ccrengines.com

 

Could have been a fluke.

 

I'll try it when I get home, and see if it works from there. I'm needing to order an engine pronto, so if someone has a phone # that'd be great.

Thanks

What happened to CCR's website? Does anyone have a phone number for them?

Thanks
