I have those little nicks in my seal surface for the tranny. I put a new seal in and did all the clean up everyone recomended. My question is, how much oil is going to be hitting the back of the seal? If it leaked are we talking 2 or 3 drops or are we talking 2 quarts a drive? Just trying to understand the impact, or possible impact.
Thanks. Eric |

also affecting the seals sealing is the play in the shaft due to wear in the bearings. The ones in the tranny and the one in the flywheel, if those don't support the shaft so there is little movement then lots of 90wt oil flys out.
