Hi All,
My '92 XJ 4.0 I-6 Auto trany has oil dripping off the back of the engine oil pan and off the transmission bell housing. It is not coming from the drain plug seal, but comes from higher up on the motor. Looks like the rear crank seal is leaking.
What do I have to do to replace the seal? I've figured out that I have to remove the oil pan. Can I replace the seal without pulling the motor out? Do I have to loosen the crank bearing caps? I guess (hope) the seal is a two-part and I'll have to poke the upper part out.
Maybe I'll take a few pics and do a tech write-up when I get into this repair...
