Oil leak

[PhilyBarber]

This may be a stupid question but is it normal for this amount of oil to be leaking after 20mins of idleing in on the drive.
Do all 25's leak in some way?

[kevtherev]

no it's not normal.
but after twenty five years service to mankind....it's acceptable.. until you fix it.
If thats the rear of the van then the crank pulley seal looks like it's called it a day.

We have had an oil leak for as long as we have had the van at first i worried after 3 crank oil seals flywheel end I gave up trying to fix it. I just think she is an old lady and a little incontinent and if we get lost we just folow the drips home. Have a look in the wiki it will put your mind at rest or you could worrie and spend lots of money trying to fix the problem. Think of it like a constant oil change.

Just discovered a small leak on mine

Wiki is reassuring though, but with my OCD and all, I am on a mission and asking 80-90 members to help me diagnose the leak/cause so I can look into fixing it next year as she's going into hibernation for the winter, but will get started and run a little bit during though.

My OCD is terrible, and really want to track this leak down that I have so I can prepare and learn how to go about fixing it next year. For anyone who may wish to help you can find my thread, with photo showing trace of oil here...
