Well my 87 LXI is leaking oil like the Exxon Valdez. Oil coming from the front crankshaft timing belt area. Several years ago I replaced the crank and cam seals and also did the oil pump gasket and o-rings. The question is should I just buy a new oil pump at Autozone $65 or replace the o-rings again. It has a lotta miles on the oil pump so Im a thinking that once I get in there, I should just replace the whole pump. Any opinions would be appreciated. And, yes I am sure it is the oil pump leaking and not the friggen oil filter base gasket or valve cover gasket.
