jimmymac101 Posted December 15, 2015 Share Posted December 15, 2015 Thanks dude alot of stress building it. Dropped my spanner doing the alt belt as it was slipping and have found its leaking oil again so 95% sure it's crank seal again stupid starlet. I may get some fogs soon I'll see if I can afford it.What isit with you and that crank seal? Never ending love story between you two! James Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ollieh17 Posted December 15, 2015 Share Posted December 15, 2015 If a starlet engine isn't leaking oil it probably hasnt got any in it Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Dan507 Posted December 15, 2015 Share Posted December 15, 2015 i thought the crank seal has gone on mine, turns out it was the rocker cover, where the cam cover hides it and the timing belt has spayed it everywhere. car looks great man. looks so much better with the new lights.

akyakapotter Posted December 20, 2015 Author Share Posted December 20, 2015 Took the Glanza to work today for it weekly use its been pissing me off again with its leaky crank seal or leaky sump again but when I take a picture of it like the one below all the problems I have with it go away and I love it again the spool of the turbo the chatter flames out the exhaust makes me smile every time.

jiggaman_16 Posted December 23, 2015 Share Posted December 23, 2015 I changed my crank seal about 4 times before biting the bullet & removing the oil pump to change the big O-ring behind it. Never leaked from that area again. Very much worth a try Quote Link to post Share on other sites

akyakapotter Posted January 16, 2016 Author Share Posted January 16, 2016 Got a garage for the glanza to keep it away from the elements when I'm not driving it. Bastard leaks from the roof and the very edge of the roof and the side becase of a hole. So I have had to get a cover for the car lol turns out the leak in the roof should have been fixed in 2013 and the hole in the side fixed in 2014 as well as that an aspestos check done December 2015 before I rented it which wasn't done so I shouldn't have been rented it stupid council.
