"Hi Allen,
Any luck with the pinion seal that you wrote about? Hope the advice helped.

Techniques for replacing pinion seal on differential
My 63 Park Avenue has a leak at the differential. My accomlished, experienced, and reliable mechanic has never replaced a seal of this type. I have a pinion seal and differential gasket. I also purchased a reprinted shop manual for 1963 Cadillacs. He is concerned about torque needed in tightening the pinion nut so that it was the same as before disasembly. We would greatly appreciate advice and/or knowledge of videos,tecniques for the successful removal, replacement of the pinion seal.See More

Many thanks,

I have to keep my foot on the throttle until it warms up or it will idle just terrible and try to die. Once it’s warm, it runs fantastic! Whats going on here? I was thinking of removing the…
