Well I though buying new would give me a few years of running without issues. 150 miles into it and I'm scratching my head.
My new Tremec TKO 600 (purchased new in late 2012) is leaking from somewhere. She has been on the track a few times now (not-street legal) and after a 20 minute session, she starts dripping at the transmission seams, so much that it as created a coating on the rear diff and gas tank. There have been no "incidents" with the car as she is still being broken-in.
I have checked the following and there are no indications of leakage:
Top caps
Shifter cap
Top Breathing valve (not stuck either)
Speedometer plug
Drain/Fill plugs
Reverse sensor plugs
Rear drive seal
I'm at a loss here. Any ideas? Anyone have a similar issue? Any known problems with the TKO's of that year?
I put the engine/trans in together as a unit.
Before I even thing about yanking the engine, has anyone tried pulling the trans out WITHOUT removing the engine? Is there clearance?
