Default Help !
I got 93,060 miles in my 07 EG UC . Runs like its was a few miles old . my engine is losing oil and hard to starts when it's hot , so I add a quart as the dip stick say so, then I notice after few miles running around I got an oil leaks in my primary then I decided to remove the derby cover to check if the oil is low , when I about to remove the last bolt it starts leaking oil .then I decided to just removed the drain plug .i got more than a quarts . I did check the engine oil and its low.what possibly wrong with my engine ? Oil seal or worst ?

Yup ! I got it out . Now I'm thinking to double the seal. The space were it was seated and the crank spacer has good amount of space to put a double seal .
