In the olden days it was not unusual for a distributor to wick oil up and it would then leak down the back of the engine, appearing at times like a bad rear engine seal. If your car is one of the last dinosaurs with a distributor I would look there. If it does not have a distributor, what could leak oil up that high on the engine except a bad gasket on a valve cover, that however seemingly would cause an oil trail from the lower side of the valve gasket.

SOURCE: 2000 go tracker bad oil

It has to be an oil pressure sending unit. There are two of them on that SUV but they are in different places depending on your engine cord. If you go to Advance Auto parts or O'Riley, they will tell you exactly where to look.

Why is my s10 pickup truck leaking transmission oil?

If your trans is leaking between the motor and trans it can only be two things the front seal witch is behind the converter or the gasket on the trans pump and that is highly unlikely probly the front seal

Have a oil leak on oil pan on my f350,got the oil pan lose,but cant get the oil pan out, trans is in the way, do i loosen the trans or motor mount on engine

Remove the motor mount bolts and raise the engine slowly. Don't dent the oil pan when raising the engine! After the engine is raised, you should have enough clearance to remove the pan.

Hi i have a 93 buick lesabre that is leaking atf badly seems to be comming from right where the motor and transmisson join together im thinking torque converter seal and im wondering how difficult a job...

I worked on buicks at a dealer for 15 years and never saw a torque converter seal leaking...if its trans fluid that leaking i would suspect a front pump seal in the trans,If is not trans fluid make sure its not the back of the intake manifold leaking down the bellhousing seaming to leak from the trans. ..If oil maybe rear main seal... No special tools needed really just make sure you support the engine safely if you are going to remove the trans.....

Tranny leaking fuild

No way to tell over the net. There are 10+ places where tranny fluid could leak from. You need to powerwash the car and then run it for 20min and get a more specific place where the fluid is coming from. And maybe we can help you better. Possible gasket, hole in trans pan, could be a line or at the radiator or hole in the trans or even a seal at the axles!!

your rear main seal is probably bad. the reason it only leaks after sitting awhile is that the oil in the motor has finnaly all drained back into the pan and has hit the level of the breach in the seal

How to diagnose an oil pan leak

If you have an automatic trans there should be a metal plate just after the rear seal of the motor. If you can remove the shield and see rust, good. If it has red oil, bad, its the trans. You will be able to see if the rear main of the engine is leaking by the oil on the torque converter and flywheel. You may just need to gently tighten the pan bolts which may loosen by themselves.

Oil leak on trans and engine 94 Toyota pickup 4x4 with 22RE

best way to go about this is clean it off first and for most. you cant really tell where its coming from if the stuff oozing out likes like the rest of the motor. so start with that and go from there. honestly though any car ive ever bought used ive had to tighten everything up and most the time it stops leaking so it could very well be your problem. if it was your rear crank seal to the mess would really more over be inside your bellhousing and dripping out of your inspection cover.
