Crank seal leak
by Matt on Nov.14, 2009, under Repairs
While visiting my parents today I noticed a trail of oil under my car. The front of the motor is covered. I pulled everything apart at my grandparent’s and found the front crank seal is leaking quite a bit. I actually have the seal left over from the timing belt kit, but I have to purchase a cam lock bar to do it.
Southbend Stage 3 OFE clutch
by Matt on Nov.05, 2009, under Parts
I picked up a new South Bend stage 3 OFE clutch & RS4 Pressure Plate from some kid in DC for a few bones. The pressure plate needs to be reset so I’ll have to find someone with a press I can use.
