Oil leak from rear main seal
Hello,
I've had a small oil leak from apparently the rear main seal on my '93
Honda Accord. My mechanic just identified it today when doing some other
unrealated repairs. I knew that I had an oil leak from somewhere that has
been a slight nuisance but not terribly cumbersome. Very little oil hits the
driveway. It will cost about $300 to get this repaired. The car has around
180,000 miles on it and I would like to drive it for at least 250,000 if not
more. The balance of the engine and car is in excellent shape.
Is it worth putting the money out right now to replace the seal or
should I wait until I need some other repair that can be done in tandem so I
don't have to have my mechanic pull the transmission just to get to this one
problem. Thanks in advance for replies.
Dan
