Replaced Cam+ Crank seals and still leaking
Hey guys, so after i ran over a tire i had my car in the air and noticed my undercarriage covered in oil and a steady stream from behind the crank pulley so we replaced the seals in there real quick and cleaned everything off and sure enough right now i got another fresh leak in my driveway.
Anyone know what else behind the crank pulley could leak? Kinda weird

stick or auto? check for crank walk. get a prybar and try to move the crank pulley forward and back. You should get almost no walk,if you do have play it may be bad news. I have seen a few 2JZ's walk. Even at very low mileage.

when you replaced the front main the first time , what method or tool did you use to remove the old seal . if pryed out with a screw driver , were you very careful as to not score the inside of pump housing where seal sits against .
when you inserted the new seal did you use a piece of pvc piping the exact size of the outer most edge of seal and gently tap in squarely , and did you sit the seal flush with the lip of pump or recessed inwards for if sitting to far in , it can leak again

Automatic, Aftermarket front main by NOK, Lasted 10k miles before showing any issue. Now still leaking after a fresh one

I had my buddy put in the seal for me, i came home right when he was done and the seal looked perfectly flush with the outer lip it slide into. Is that not far enough in or? i didnt even think about checking.
