small hair line oil leakage

Brissco · Jul 31, 2008

Is there a additive that can be put in to the drive line that will stop this small amount of leakage at some of the joints of the tranmission and rear end? Every time I drive my M, I notice hair line leakage in a few places. I just wipe them off. Brissco

Tighten some bolts a little. After that it will need gaskets as far as I know.

Yep, what Dave said.

Put a wrench to 'er.

I had a small leak before my tranny broke last year right under the belt drive that I didn't think much of . When I got the cover off and steam cleaned it real good I found it was broken clean through in that area . Just a hairline break that someone had tried to braze but that didn't work . I tried JBweld and that didn't work either so I still have a small leak right there . Next step is to find a '47 vintage cover that's in good shape . Sorry I couldn't be of any help . Just remember that if oil can get out water can get in . Good luck . ...Randy
