    Leaking crank seal

    This is turning into a head scratcher. I replaced sump/sleave and new seal. I filled it with oil and let it set all day and never leaked a drop. I started and let idle a minute and started leaking oil again from seal. I removed dipstick thinking crankcase pressure may be forcing oil out...

    Leaking crank seal

    Thanks. The sump comes with a sleeve instead of roller bearing and if I'm reading right, it's all one unit. I'm wondering if the sleeve wallows out, would that cause leak at seal? 0C57320SRV

    Turns out I didn't do my homework. Sensors and gauges ohm ranges have to match and I didn't research that. Thanks for responses

    ZD21 fuel level sensor

    Help with diagnosis please

    Thanks for that info Star Tech. I've never worked with a shorting connector. Are they a safety cut off if seat plug becomes detached?
