On the way to WCR my transmission started popping out of 5th gear and the bottom of the tranny was coated with oil. It looked like engine oil to me, but it turned out my transmission was totally out of oil.
The leak looks like it's coming from the bell housing. The engine oil level showed that it wasn't an engine oil leak. Since the clutch showed no signs of slippage, the only thing I can think of is the pivot bolt. I've searched, but can't find anything on this. I'm wondering what would cause oil to leak there and what to do about it. Anybody got any ideas or know of something else I should be checking? |
