Here's a pix of a weeks worth of drips from the rear of the tranny. It's a slick about 12" x 8" At this rate, how often should I top off? Is resealing the rear an easy, medium, or hard task for the average goofball 914 mechanic?
Happy Thanksgiving Ya'll and a Merry Christmas Season! Bill

Where is it coming from? confused24.gif

When mine leaked like that, it was the seal around the speedo cable angle drive.

If you're worried about losing oil, top off the tranny every now and then.

Most often the O-ring on the speedo. I stock these for cheap. Easy to replace.

I think you are correct. It is an easy fix unless the bore is gouged. Then you need to fix it. I can show how.

OK.It's leaking at the speedo. Also, the base of the mount is wobbly...I can push it back in forth on the shaft. Is this normal or is the drive worn out?
Dr. I will need the seal and instructions. I'm PMing later today to get that.
Thanks Bill

Bill. I think the major problem with the leak is the TEXAS licence plate...... biggrin.gif

If it were just the Texas plates, we'd have already sealed up that hole! Like this one.

Too bad the schedule was changed for Arkansas to play TCU in 2012...instead of 2009...What a game that would have been!
