Re: Tranny
It's the govenor cover. Yes it can leak especially if someone used a screwdriver to pry it out. As far as fixing a leak from there,,,,,,Could always try removing the cover, gasket sealer (ritestuff, permatex, sillycone) and putting the cover back in.
I've replaced cases for leaking there. Frank

Re: Tranny
Governor is on the other side of the case, and is held on with a large outer clip.
Accumulator piston is behind the cover. The cover has a large O ring around it. Usually when it leaks the spring under the cap is broken. Shove a large pick into the hole in the alum. casting to move the large C clip where you can pry it out with a small flat blade scewdriver. Then you can remove the cap and O ring. Then look at the spring to see if it is broken. They are color coded. Go to the local trans shop and get the parts needed. Last edited by kwmech; 09-11-2008 at 12:27 AM. |

Re: Tranny
So i saw today then it squirts out the side hole in the Accumulator.
Does this mean the spring is broken? What is this hole for?
