It happens and there is no fix, if working and not leaking it won't hurt anything.
Leaking the odd drip only hurts the floor. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/shades.gif) |

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/shades.gif) A leaking angle drive can leak into the cable sheath, and the cable can actually push the fluid up into the cockpit. I had a few pairs of pants with odd dark spots near the right knee; I finally found that there was gear oil leaking from where the speedo cable hooked up to the gauge!! --DD |
