I need a good source to buy an rear main oil seal for my civic. The local Honda dealer took my money but then called back saying they could not deliver. I found one seller on the web but they wanted $15 ship n handling for a $10 part. I said no.
83 honda civic 1500 NOK AH6924P 74x98x12 Honda 91214-634-004
Help is appreciated. I need to buy a rear main seal. cheap but reliable and fast. lol.
It was leaking a little oil and since I had the head off I decided to replace the main seal. How much work could that be? Oops. A lot of work thats how much. Well it was a learning experience. Now I know how to replace the transmission, axles, trans cables, engine mounts, starter motor, and a few other things. Useful for the future I guess.
After I got the seal out it didn't look like it was leaking. Of course it would now. lol. Live and learn. Maybe someone else was sloppy when they put oil in and poured it over the engine instead of into it.
Joe.

Wait.... Honda took your money for payment, said they couldn't get one and did not refund? Also, if Honda doesn't have it, who else?

No they gave me my money back of course. They just said they could not sell me one. I still need a source. No doubt they can get one of a limited number for in house repairs but were unable or unwilling to get onefor me. Thanks for responding.

I posted a second time cause no one responded to the first one. Check the times.
And please dont complain about my messages. If all you can do is complain please don't respond. I've gotten stupid remarks about my messages a couple times now.
No I tried napa, and autozone and precision. none had the right type. All they offered was the metal exterior type, not what I want. I was looking for rubber on rubber.
I have not heard of kregan and do not know even what they are. I will google it I guess.

Please just stop posting. Its obvious you cannot tell me where to get a seal to replace the one I took out of the car. Let someone else answer.

Found one.
I went to Car Quest and they tried to get one for me. They brought out three and all three were too big. Then he typed in my old part number and told me the crossover part number was different from the replacement part number. So thats the probem. Everyone had the wrong part number in their databases.
He brought out another and it was a dead on match. So I am happy now. Both are NOK and the new one has a beveled edge on the inside to make it easier to start. They were the only supplier to bring out the nok brand name. I will try there first time, next time I need Honda parts.
Prices went from $10.16 to 25.83 Honda dealer was at 21.98 but back out.
