[oil leak: 1955 Buick Century crankshaft]

Yes c49er I will definitely use the oil leak dye. thanks. I'll keep you updated.

[oil leak: 1955 Buick Century crankshaft]

c49er what I'm going to do before I change the seal is drop the tranny and let engine run, this way I can see everything that's going on and maybe find why it's leaking. I'll keep you updated.

Thanks frank DuVal seem's like to cut the rope straight is important. 

[oil leak: 1955 Buick Century crankshaft]

thanks c49er. Will keep you posted on how it turn's out. thanks again.

[oil leak: 1955 Buick Century crankshaft]

c49er hopefully changing to the rope seal will do the trick. thanks.

[oil leak: 1955 Buick Century crankshaft]

Mike HUBBIESTEARNS like I said I used a new modern made seal so I got the original rope and going to try that one. Hopefully it works. thanks.

[oil leak: 1955 Buick Century crankshaft]

Thanks, c49er. like I said I just had the crank redone but I did use a modern rear seal. so I just found a brand new N.O.S. rear main original rope seal and I'm going to replace the one that's in there now. Hopefully this works. Will keep you posted and thanks for the info. Appreciate it.

Guy's I just completed my 55 buick century crankshaft because I had a bad leak coming from the rear main seal after changing 2 seals prior. Believe it or not after putting the crank back in with a new rear main seal it still LEAKS ! can't believe it. Rebuilt crankshaft and new rear main seal and it still leaks. Anybody have an idea why it would still be leaking from there ? everything else is dry as a bone on the engine.

[Crankshaft for 1955 Buick 322 Engine]

I can relate about oil dripping from crankshaft. I to replaced 2 seals before realizing the crank shaft was worn and a little pitted.I took engine out and removed the crankshaft and had it re-done. Was going to put a new crankshaft in that I found at CARS LLC. in New Jersey but I wanted to use my original one since it was already in my car and broken in kind of. End of the day the crank is back in and I have no more oil leaks ! finally ! but if anyone out there needs a crank shaft you can find them on eBay. Some rebuilt one's or new one's.

[ac/heater defrost]

[vent window]

thanks JOHND1956. im going to try everything you guys mentioned and me changing out the rubber and hopefully something will work.

[vent window]

thanks OLD-TANK I will try that and I'm going to replace the vent window rubbers also.hopefully it's that.

[vent window]

60FLATTOP my vent windows stay closed very tight and I had the frames all redone. that's the puzzling thing. no air comes through when driving but I hear the wind whistling anyway. the rubber is a little bit worn so I'm hoping when I change it out it will stop and I'm going to try to put that rubber seal that runs along the post from the flipper front down along that post that meets the door. gonna try anything at this point. thanks and yes to frank Duval I will use the painter's tape. it leaves no residue.
