It might be that the engine/gearbox vent pipes are blocked causing the whole crankcase to be pressurised which has then blown the seal on the gearbox output shaft. Either that or you have gearbox oil leaking into the shaft area. Same seal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
