<snip>The dieseling was still occurring even though I retarded the timing a
bit more (3-4 degrees)
Ignition has nothing to do with dieseling. Once you turn off the key you
have no ignition.
<snip>I wouldn't mind the dieseling if I was sure it wasn't a sign of a
bigger problem.
Mind it!! It is pure hell on bearings and such. The bearing loading is
irregular during this condition and they won't like it at all!!
<snip> THe freshly built motor has a rear main seal leak!!! Does everyones
leak?
Pretty much. Not like what you are experiencing however. It is usually
just an annoying drip.
<snip> I don't think that seal can be replaced without pullinghte motor
right?
I tried it without pulling the engine once. No success. I've only heard one
person say he had success this way. Everyone else I talked to/heard from
had to lift the crankshaft.
