1850 Gearbox oil leak

#1 Post by Gibbonz » Sat Feb 07, 2004 11:25 pm

drips oil out the drain plug.<br>
Have tightened it up (really tight) BUT still drippy.<br>
Has anyone else experienced this and is it common to Dollys. Currently full! of Ep90<br>
Was going to wrap some 'seelon' tape around it to see if it sealed ok.<br>
Cheers<br>

There is no washer. Just a tapered thread plug
