1997 Tahoe, 5.7L with 140K miles.
Getting a significant leak around at the front of my engine near my timing cover oil seal.
How difficult a R&R is this?
Hearing the oil pan needs to come down as part of this job; can anyone confirm this.
Rough idea of how many hours I can expect to be looking at for this job.
Also while I've got the timing cover off to replace the seal do I bite the bullet and replace the timing chain and gears or are these bulletproof.
A new water pump will be going on as well.
Anything else while I'm in there??
Thanks
