I have a 90 sc and I think my timming cover is leaking.Can anyone tell me how to replace the gasket.Looks like it is going to be a long day.
After 220,000 miles, mine is leaking as well. The reason I've avoided fixing it is the HB has to come off. Mine is in good shape, I don't really want to mess it up when I reinstall it (which I will do ) But the leak is a bad thing with a Texas summer coming up so its now a must do. After I get Red's AOD rebuilt and installed, I'll tackle the timing chain cover.
I have a line on a spare BHJ.. guess I'll look into that.If it's still got the original balancer on the car, I seriously doubt it's in as good of shape as you think it is.

Not sure if this is on all 3.8`s but the long bolts that go though the water pump and timming cover need sealent as they go into the water jacket of the block. I have seen them leak at the bolts.
