OK, so this is'nt really news to anyone, but my 900T likes to leak, and I wanted to get an "affirmation" of sorts on the degree to which I need to go to stop it.
The reason I ask is cuz, besides this persistent leak, she is fine/runs like new/always dependable, and I kinda feel like "if it ain't broke, don't fix it"....
Oil seems to leave drips at both front and rear of engine, but the oil seal was replaced when the clutch was done about 25k ago. Other end seal could obviously be worn.
Actually, the main gasket/sealing surface b/w engine and trans case seems to be the place where it's really coming from - THUS,
1. I need to lift the whole powerpack to replace that - rite?
2. Same if it's the front(rear) seal, too?
I want to be able to not lie to my wife that it probably requires lifting the motor to stop the leaking. You know how it is!
Thanx
Toecutter
