Ok all done, car is now running fine so far.

Looks like the one that was in it is a no name CAS as there was no id numbers or anything on it....

most people take the inspection cover off and stop the flex plate turning with a screw driver or the like


This may sound stupid but where is the inspection cover?

it is the black plastic cover that is between the engine and auto - you remove this to get access to the flexplate torque converter

Car will need to be on ramps or axle stands though

And it looks like the rear main seal gone :(

How hard is the rear seal to replace or should I take it somewere to have it done?
might as well have the sunp gasket done at the same time...
