leak from timing chain cover

~The Jester~ · 03-03-2005, 04:44 PM

R U Sure it's coming from the chain cover? Is there any antifreeze in the oil? Sometimes when the water pump leaks out of the weep hole, it'll run down and drip off of the cover. Might just need a pump (read as: Cheaper!) If you have to go in that deep, change the timing chain, front seal, and have them flush the cooling system before refilling it.

Good-Ta-Go!

yeah, my mechanic confirmed the timing chain cover leak. i told him to change the timing chain and flush out that shitty dexcool (i know, finally!) and put green back in. also gave him a set of FMS silicone hoses to throw on.

front seal????
