Message: [QUOTE="Garbage_Mechanic, post: 965603, member: 1610"] OK now you are just about where I was when I found my leak, even though mine was smaller. BEFORE you take anything else apart pressurize up the crankcase to 5 psi with air and use soapy water. The only thing this won't find is something like an oil galley plug leaking that leaks pressurized oil. On installing the rear main seal: Use a seal "package" from Ford or IH. No aftermarket. The seal blots on no issue there, but the wear ring that goes on the crank is tricky. It has to be pressed on straight. I used the center out of an old Dual Mass flywheel and some longer (Metric) bolts to do two of them now, many miles on each no leaks. No hammers allowed to install the ring! To get the old ring off, use a small hammer and "peen" it all the way around to break the locktite and then use a "rolling head" "ladys foot" type bar to pull it off evenly NO BURRS or dings in the crank surface. Good luck! [/QUOTE]
