Default Re: Uphill oil leak

Darryl,

Thank you for the information. It got me thinking. When I looked at the rear main cap (removed from the block) I did notice that the babbitt job had issues. I could see some small voids between the babbitt and the cap along the top of the cap where the shims are. Maybe the oil is going down the void and exiting out the behind the thrust surface?
