rear main seal

By jeff jones - 05/19/2005 1:00:23 PM; IP 152.163.100.197

i need help. i find very little or no information in this forem to help one replace a rear main seal on a 390 fe. even tho all fe engines leak? there are two types of seals available, one is called a rope seal, the other is rubber, which one is the best?? are any special tools needed? can i do this on my back on a garage floor or should i just let it go for now. will it leak more if not installed correctly. can some one recommend a seal type and instructions on replacement. i have the ford 1967 shop manual, nothing is said on special tools, but i have never replaced one. pan is off for new oil pump.

This thread, so far...
