Sooooo... I have posted a few times recently about projects to stop oil leaks. I have done the following:

1. Replaced valve cover gasket, and rubber groments on elbows.

2. Had dealer replace oil filter adapter gasket.

So, first day, no leaks....drove it to work today, LEAKS!! It is soaked on the drivers side!! What next?

 

Soaked on the driver's side of what? The valve cover, the lower block, the ground? Where are you seeing oil collecting, and where is the highest clean place you can find?

 

sorry, underside....

tranny pan, front drive shaft, and on back as the wind blows

 

just looked around some more and the valve cover looks good. the oil cap was leaking though and i ordered a new one (I have kragen special) It is just soaked on the drivers side and I pressure washed yesterday! It is really wet along the frame (I know unibody, but frame) and front drive shaft

 

sure its oil trans lines are there

 

yep...motor oil fo sho. I parked in a new parking lot to check my stain (sorry). had to add oil too

 

ol pan gasket, front seal on motor get out the flash light and look in the front of motor

 

Hi....recently my jeep leaked on me....
Traced it back to my distributor....leaked oil will flow backwards when on the move....
Will have oily starter motor....bell housing...
Just give it a check...

 

Rear main?

 

+1 on the distributor gasket

Mine was pouring from there too. Replaced the gasket and found out that it didnt have a hold down clamp so I replaced that too.

 

that should leak on the passenger side wouldnt you think? I guess I'm going to pay the dealer to run the dye then do it my self

 

any updates??

Thinking about changing my valve cover gasket. What type did you use or if anyone else know what I should use. Anything particular I should know or need before removing the cover?

 

u try rear main seal xjs are known for them goin bad

 

did my rear main, valve cover, and distributer gaskets recently. this thing doesnt come close to even dripping anywhere now
