My 96 F150 X-Cab had a new 302 installed at the dealer due to bad machining for the rear main seal bore. This caused the seal to leak at 70K miles. New Engine! Great! Well, now the new engine is beginning to leak from the same seal and it only has 2800 miles on it. Yes, I was very carefull to beak it in properly.
Has anyone else experianced this problem? Is this a 302 common problem for the F150? What about other models they have installed this engine in? I would like to know.
