    I have a 95 ford aerostar with 115000 miles and it still runs great. I had the rear main seal replaced and also the oil pan gasket twice in one week and it is still leaking oil.After spending over 1200 dollars for this I have no clue as to what to do next. Transmission was pulled 3 times to find the problem.First time changed rear seal second time changed oilpan gasket third time changed rear seal again and its still leaking.If anyone knows the secret to fixing this problem please post it. Thank you
