ZF Hurth Transmission

Gary,
Thanks for tip. I might carry one as a spare.
You guys are so lucky in the States--a mere $5 ( for a product that costs a few cents ). Amazon in the UK want £36.58 ( oh, plus postage, of course ). How do they stay in business ?
I will hunt around.

I drained the fluid from the bottom drain plug then undid the one bolt that holds the shift lever in place. It comes off easily and there is absmall lip seal that can be popped out. The measurement are on the seal and I ordered a couple of replacement items from a Honda motorcycle shop :) That replacement stopped the leak and has held for four years now. The info I have is that the seal is 20mm ID, 26mm OD by 4mm thickness. The Honda part number is 91262-GBF-831 I keep those white oul-absorbent cloth "diapers" spread out under the engine and transmission (and in the genset pan) so I can quickly see if any oil is getting loose.

I had the same issue. It was exactly as Bill described. Was an easy fix for the pros.

Hi Arhur,
Hopefully it's from the drain plug on the underside that has a sealing washer you can easily replace. Craig

It is a leak from the reversing transmission. Check the cap for the filter and the high pressure line to the shaft brake. If the above doesn't reveal the leak, place white paper towels so that you can narrow it down to a specific location. You will probably need to clean everything and tape paper towels in place. Hopefully it is not a transmission shaft seal. --
