Re: oil everywhere (score: 1): Author: "William Davies" <bill@rarebits4classics.co.uk>; Date: Sun, 2 Jun 2002 20:41:10 +0100; Hi Bill, There is only a scroll seal on the gearbox input shaft, so it is perfectly possible that gear oil has leaked into the bellhousing after parking on a steep incline, Cheers, Bill. -- Rarebits4; /html/spitfires/2002-06/msg00021.html (8,073 bytes)

The O.D. trans on a spitfire does not have a seal per say on the input shaft of the trans. It does have a "scroll seal" which is like a reverse thread around t; /html/spitfires/2002-06/msg00023.html (8,080 bytes)

(But the carb leak is a red herring). The older 3-rail transmissions definitely did not have a real seal. I'm not sure when they finally added the seal.

I think all the transmissions older than a certain date had the scroll. Actually, the seal is really part of the bellhousing, not t; /html/spitfires/2002-06/msg00027.html (8,699 bytes)

Re: oil everywhere (score: 1): Author: "Bob Harris" <gharris@rochester.rr.com>; Date: Mon, 3 Jun 2002 20:17:50 -0400; Actually,I believe after real seals were added to the trans,O.D. trans still used the scroll.
