(cork style) When the tractor is running it does not leak but when it stops, it weeps oil. When I put the crank pulley on i can feel it push (springy) the cork back like it is grabbing on the edges of the pulley. I even took the pulley off and ran it, does not leak a drop. I think I need to really wire wheel or maybe have the pulley turned down a touch so it wont crab the cork. Im afraid to use sand paper on the cork its self in order to increase the clearance. Anyone else have this issue? thanks Andrew [Reply]   [No Email]
