First, Thanks for all the help recently, it is much appreciated.
My lad managed to get the clutch changed over Christmas & all seems to be working very well indeed. He has however noticed that there is now a fairly considerable oil leak coming from the gearbox / clutch housing area. We have both read up on this both using the search & elsewhere & have determined that he has either;
A) Overfilled the gearbox. He used the specified 2/3 of a pint. Where as people seem to be recommending just 1/2 a pint. Is this correct?
B) Damaged a seal around the 1st moting shaft of the box. Is this easy to do?
As a plan of action is is worth emptying & re filling the gearbox to just 1/2 a pint & seeing what happens or should we pull it to bits again sharpish to avoid saturating the clutch plate with oil?
Any advice is much appreciated.
Thanks,
