Here is where I am at present.
Have had engine out three times but still leaks like a seive.
Been doing a bit of research. This is quoted from the orginal shop manual and
I did not do it.
"The rear main bearing cap horizonal joint surfaces should be thourghly
cleaned and lightly covered with a sealing compound before the cap is fitted
to the cylinder block. This ensures a perfect oil seal when the cap is bolted
down to the block"
With the amount of oil that is comming out I must have a major leak point
misfit. I can pull that rear bearing cap with the pan down and clean and
seal.
Think I will try that, otherwise, shrug I don't think I have a clue yet. At
least this work I can do laying down on the job. LOL
Weather permiting I will try this in the morning.
What say you guys, a leak of the magnatude I have must/could mean a real bad
bearing cap mismatch somehow.
Oh forgot: Page A.22 section A.30 To Install(5).
