Hello,

I have a soft plug leaking, regretably it is the one at the rear between the engine and transmission. Is there any way to replace/repair without pulling the engine. Any suggestions to stop the leak or repair would be greatly appreciated. thank you.

you can pull the transmission and do it that way if you want. but you'll still need to pull the flywheel. About the only fix is to replace the plug. Te other supposed fixe don't work.........
