Depending on how expensive a new seal & installation might cost, I would be considering just changing the oil and watching it closely for a while. I would imagine all of the older ones seep a minute amount of oil. Maybe you could top it off with 5w30 to scrutinize whether it is leaking enough to change the seal. Then pull the snout and refill with the proper SC oil.

Don't take any chances with that blower. If it is high mileage it probably needs to be serviced (bearings, seals and clearances checked) If it is low mileage, I would change the seal and change the oil. (OH, and put on a smaller pulley HEHE)

About Us

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
