I've got what appears to be an oil leak coming from my sump plate, and one of my return tubes. I've also got a small seap coming from my drivers side chain cover. This all started after my first oil change, valve adjustment, and tune up. I was planning on dropping my engine this fall to pass the time while my fiance' will be out of the country. While I have my engine out I am planning to replace all seals that could potentially leak, replace my vacuum lines, my breather hose, etc. Since I've noticed my leaks starting, I am contemplating removing my engine now and taking care of all of this so I can enjoy some worry free motoring without too much down time. This being said, am I wasting my money and time by dropping my engine and replacing seals that seeminly aren't leaking as of yet? I think I would enjoy the learning experience. Anyways, I'd appreciate any feedback from you more experienced "elfers" than myself.
