OIL LEAK - 1994 Cutlass LQ1

[bluecalais79]

It's that time. The oil leak in the rear main seal of my 1994 Cutlass Supreme SL with the 3.4L motor has gotten so bad that it needs to come out for repairs. In addition to this being in need of replacement, I am going to have the oil pan gasket replaced as well, along with the 3 coils and the alternator while the motor is out of the car. In addition to that, is there anything else anyone can think of that should be replaced while the motor is out, as this would be a golden opportunity to get it done. The engine compartment will also be degreased to clean up the big mess this leak has been making.

It does not need a timing belt, water pump, or any intake manifold work as this was all done 5 years and 10,000 miles ago and no issues here.

I should check my timing belt again, its been a while. I know it has lower miles-ish on it, but I've owned it for 15 years now. My list for this spring is a new starter (gets heat soaked and doesn't wanna crank), and a new window regulator for the drivers side, and while in the door I may clean out or replace the power lock motors, not sure if they're weak or just old and gummed up

 

Doesn't answer your question but it got me thinking haha
