Ever replace an oil pump seal on a DSM engine? Please shoot me now

My eclipse has 230K miles on it, same engine and transmission. No major engine failure, or anything other than standard maintenance. I just can't afford to drop the entire transfer case / engine / etc. to replace a 12 dollar part.

So the car sits... in the driveway.... cold and alone I can't seem to part with it due to it being my first car and all.... /sigh

Anyway yea. Here is hoping I get 20 years or 2 million miles, which ever comes first!

If the car means that much to you wouldnt it be doing the car justice to have it repaired by a competant mechanic rather than rust away from negloect sitting in your driveway? look at the cost as a couple of belated car payments..
As for driving a Yaris for 20 years? i'm looking forward to my 5 years and your gone criterea.3 years to go
