mixmasterlex Posted February 7, 2009 Share Posted February 7, 2009 OK so putting rebuilt motor in celica. Dude I got it off said to replace rear main crank seal. I got the part I thougt was right from toyota, it was round and have a metal ring running around the inside. Wacked that into where the other one was (after removing the old one). Is that the main crank seal? Or is the bit that I wacked it into (the whole metal bit that connects to the back of the block) it? Sorry don't know the names of the fuckers. Basically. I used gasket sealant to connect the metal bit back to the block but there seems to be a leak when the car is up on an angle. Thinking its probably coming from there. Is there supposed to be a gasket between the metal bit and the block? Cause there wasn't one when we removed it.. just sealant.. Here is the worst mspaint ever to grace the planet to try and explain wtf im on about: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
