Oil leak from rear main seal 92 jeep cheeroke

The Rear Main Seal is the main area for an Oil Leak on the Transmission Side. You will need to drop the transmission to remove the old rear main seal and install the new one.

could be the rear main crankshaft seal

To do this job, you pull the trans, and frywheel. Rear main seal is fairly UNcommon. Most oil leaks wind up manifesting in the rear main seal area. Check other areas first, like valve cover and intake gaskets.

You probably blew a seal somewhere. I would try to pinpoint where the majority of the oil is coming from then replace that seal. A lot of times oil pan seals, drain plugs, rear main seals and valve cover seals can cause large oil leaks.

I would replace the two piece seal and skip using the lucas engine sealer.

it sound as if you have a bad rear motor seal and you will have to drop the transmission to replace it if it was me i would stop by my local library and get my hands on a Haynes auto repair manual for your jeep wish you the best of luck Michigan Man

the problem with the leak is the rear main seal on the engine is blown and should be replaced and you can pick one of these up at any auto parts store

The most likely place for an engine to start leaking oil (when it's coming from the top and not the bottom) is around the valve covers -- the gasket goes bad. Next most likely is camshaft seals.

Sometimes just tightening the valve cover botls will stop it or at least reduce it.

One thing you may want to try especially if you don't have a heated garage is a bottle of Bar's leak rear main sealer. I had a leak big enough to cause my clutch to slip and it worked for me. I figure in the spring I'll replace the seal, maybe.

It is the oil pan gasket all you have to do is drop the oil pan clean the bottom of the engine block and the surface of the oil pan and install the oil pan again. a very simple process. Make sure that it is not the rear main crank seal that is leaking. If it is the rear main then you will have to remove the tranny to replace the rear main seal.
