I gots oil comin' outta the place where the speedometer cable attaches. Not actually where it screws in but where the thingy goes into the tranny. I've tightened it at the housing but that doesn't seem to help and it swivels. I saw where an "O" ring is on the shaft via the Haynes manual pictures. Is this the seal that keeps the tranny fluid in?

Tony,
I dont know of a plug that it readily available. I have installed 5-6 new speedo angle drives.. THEY still leaked.. the end covers are wearing out from the constant rotation. It causes the speedo angle drive housing to slightly walk in the case (especially if that hold down screw has been stripped in the past) Goop it up with something. Goop the seal.. and goop the body of the angle drive. I have fought this and fought this... none of mine leak from there after the "gooping" Just gooped one last night for our fun run today. B |
