So i had the engine out last year, all gasket changed. BOP 1 piece oilpan gasket. BOP 2-piece viton rear main seal. did the tilt test with engine on cherry picker had it at about 45 dergee angle over nigth, also turned the crank a few times. came back next day, not a drop.
Fast forward a few weeks and and i notice a dime sized puddle under the car. I kinda got the wind knocked out of me seeing that and just used the car as regular the rest of the season with almost no oil use. Today i had a round of spring prepp , changed brake fluild amongst other things and cleaned up the mess from the sump and back to transmission. i took off the converter cover expecting to see the flexplate smeard in oil and a wet crank flange. but to my suprise that area was dry. kinda at a loss. i ran the car on jackstands up to temp and shut it off. had a look under and not a drop from anywhere. Went home and made some food came back an hour later and there is the dime sized oil drop again. I think it is dripping from the center rubber nub on the oilpan, best i can figure.. [IMG] ![]() ![]()
