I got my 914 back on the road and after parking in the garage, noticed oil on the garage floor on the passenger side below the heat exchanger, and elsewhere along the transmission.
From searching other 914World threads, I noticed that the speed gear is common leak spot, but I need to clean the area to see exactly where the leak is originating. Is the below 914rubber part the recommended fix and is there another gasket that I should purchase, or will the guide take care of it? Also, need a transmission fluid recommendation if there is something better than recommended in the Haynes Manual... prefer a fluid I can get at the LAPS.  |
