So, I have this 95 5.0..
I was told the Crank seal was bad, and causing it to leak, No big deal right?
Took it to a mechanic, said 150$ to do it, I was happy with it.
He called me earlier to tell me..
Its not the Crank seal, its the timing cover.. The Harmonic Balancer slipped back and beat the shit out of the timing cover, or at least that's what the mechanic told me. 500$ for a new Balancer and Timing cover, Anyone got any feedback on this?
I Have not pulled the trigger on it yet, I am going to call around and see other shop's prices.
Anyone ever heard of this happening?
