Pinion Seal Headache AGAIN
Hello & thanks for your input on this, l do really appreciate everyone's help with this. Jack had also mentioned about the vent on the rear end/ differential. I did locate it and it's the same type you're speaking of w/the little pressed on cap. It moves freely & l did pry on it a little w/a screw driver. It seemed like it didn't want to come off unless l would really pry on it. This was before l read anything further about putting a hose on etc. The trike has such low miles on it & it's so clean under there, that l just couldn't see how it could be clogged up. After reading what other people on here said about attaching a hose to it. I was considering doing it, but we were leaving for an extended ride the next day, so l decided not to do it. I was afraid of breaking something off What you have described is pretty much exactly how mine's behaving though. It only leaks out of the pinion seal area, after l've run it a while. It can set in the garage over a piece of card board for days & l won't see as much as a drop. Do you think it could possibly be clogged even though it's practically like new underneath? Thanks for your help w/this
