I had a seal leaking at the bottom of the transfer case where the driveshaft hooks on to my 1365 Oliver. It looks like it'll be a bear to replace,you have to drop the whole box out,take off a snap ring from the inside and pull the shaft out to change it. I went ahead and got the seal,but the guys at the auto parts store had some stuff called Tri Seal that they were pretty proud of. Said on the bottle that it's guaranteed to work.
Jeff told me that it says on the bottle to put one in,if it still leaks add another one,so I got two.
I put one in and after two days,it was all but stopped. I'd set a coffee can under it over night and it would just about cover the bottom. So,I figured the other bottle should finish the job. I dumped that one in along with the little bit of oil that was in the can and it started leaking worse almost immediately. It went from a drip about every thirty seconds to one every three. It filled the coffee can overnight and ran it over. Last night,I put a two and a half gallon pail under it and it filled it over night. I put it back under there this morning and it was full in eight hours.
What a mess. I just poured it back in and now it's running a steady stream. That second bottle worked just like a solvent and dissolved all the progress the first one made plus melting the whole seal apparently.
