make sure the leak is not coming from above the starter, like from the valve cover gasket, if it isn`t then it probably is the rear crankshaft seal which would require the removal of the tranny to replace.

Where is the starter on a 1998 Chevy Lumina?

You don't. Starter fluid is a really good way to damage the motor inside because it created far more pressure than the motor is designed for. It's best to find and fix the problem rather than use the fluid. You would put starter fluid in the gas tank.


Where is the starter solenoid on a 1999 Dodge Dakota?

Right side of vehicle under the oil filter for 4.0 engines. It is located on the starter. The solenoid is another smaller cylindrical shaped device that is mounted to the starter. If you have to replace it you have to buy the whole starter assembly that comes with a solenoid. I have not found a way to replace only the solenoid. Jeep engineered this to benefit their dealer service garages.

Why do I have an oil leak on my 5.4 from above the starter side of the motor?

An oil leak on the starter side of a 5.4 engine could be due to several factors, including a worn or damaged oil pan gasket, a faulty valve cover gasket, or a leaking oil pressure sender. Additionally, the rear main seal may also be a potential culprit, especially if the oil is pooling near the transmission. It's important to thoroughly inspect these components to identify the source of the leak and address it promptly to avoid further engine damage.
