Just would like a couple hints or pointers. I got a Front main seal oil leak. Car lot I purchased off squirted some stuff on it to try to slow it down from what someone told me. Anyway...what am I looking at? Is it just a basic take the wheel off, belt and harmonic balancer and replace the seal? Or alittle more then that? Thanks.
 


Here's a how to on the crank sensor. It's the same thing except you don't need to pull the sensor. Seal is right in the pics.
 
Y'know, if you're going in there anyway, pick up a new chain/tensioner if you're over 100,000 miles. Just found a 115k tensioner with deep scars.
 


Too late lol...I did it yesterday. Ive been so slammed I quoted the local dealer and they said $175. I had it schelduled to go in this morning cause someone is supposed to buy the car and I ended up squeezing some time and did it. Glad I did..took me a whopping 20 min and a $15 seal. Thanks to that post..helped me alot!
