'90 22R PU leaking oil
My '90 22R (4spd manual/Carb/ RWD- not my 4x4) is leaking about 8 drops of engine oil per night (10-12 hour period) It's definitely engine oil, coming from right under the engine. The 22R is otherwise solid, not tired at all, great power/ torque, smooth & quiet. Currently at 175k on original engine/ tranny. How would I find the source? What are some common leaks on these? I don't really want to start tearing it up to check- I don't mind the small leak, but it would be nice to get rid of. How about that "rear main seal repair in a bottle" stuff? If I found the source of the leak, could I put something on it externally? (ie: JB Weld, RTV, etc.) Any ideas/ suggestions?
Thanks!
Thanks!
