Transition

Ive had a real problem with my car leaking oil on the driveway lately. First,theres a pool of oil two thirds of the way up on both sides of the driveway. Theresanother pool of oil inside the garage where I park the car. After I clean the oil up. The next day its back again. Finally, I took the car to a garage to have the oil changed and the leak topped. However, the problem was more difficult than Id expected. The rear main bearing seal was leaking, but to replace it, the engine would have to be pulled. I couldnt afford that, so I had to wait and save up some money. In the meantime,I put three oil pans on the spots where the car leaks oil when its parked. I cant think of any other solution for now.
