Gary ,
You only took care of the secondary seal in the design . If the pinion
seal was replaced ,you would have solved it at the root cause .
The cable seals are just that . They are used to keep the cable and
housing interior clean and uncontaminated .
Pinion seals are available as a new part .The Tach and Speedo cable
housing seals are Not available as an individual replacement part from
Nissan .
Remove your Tach cable end from the stand and tell me there isn't any
oil in the housing there now .
So , Cap it with what ?
