Today I mostly did some clean up on the back of the engine and in the bell housing. After taking a good look at the main seal again....
.....I don't think I'm going to replace it now. I've known for a long time about an oil leak in this engine, but it comes from much further forward of this seal. After laying upside down on my head yesterday to figure out how to get the clutch position switch out......This job has been a big fight all the way. A year and a half ago, I put in an engine and transmission in my '90 Integra that never belonged in that car, much later year. It was easier than this. I'm just going to put it back together as soon as I finish putting in the new clutch master cylinder. There's always next year.
