Morning All !
I found the gearbox on my 951 was oozing a little every so often from the drain plug. Anyhow drained it all last weekend and then resealed it with a new drain plug, covered in PTFE tape I then slapped loads of silicon sealant on as I 'wound' in the drain plug and then put extra around it.
I then left it for 24hrs to cure before filling it with 2.35L then sealed up the fill plug in the same fashion.
Glad to report no leaks at all, although I did find that last night the cooler support bracket had broken.... Simple fix for my local welder chap.
So for those of your with the cooler loop keep an eye open for the bracket shearing off where it bolts into the gearbox/torque tube join.
