My rear main seal has been leaking oil and i went to my nearest Advanced Autoparts and they sell a bottle of Rear Main Seal Fix fluid which supposedly rejuvenates the seal. Could I use this until I get a mechanic to drop my transmission and replace my seal? Also, it says to add the whole bottle. Is that in addition to the oil required by the 300zx?

DO NOT USE A CHEMICAL LEAK FIX!!!!

when you tear down a motor thats had any of that crap run through it everything is sludged up, it' nasty and doesn't work, and makes any future work more difficult and messy! just keep adding oil till you can fix it right, otherwise you simply casue more damage
