Gear box (Transmission) vent tubing leaking
When I purchased the golf cart last month, there was oil all over inside the engine bay so I cleaned it out and tune up. My last task was to drain the gear oil and put in a fresh one.
I did this today and notice the previous owner did not completely snap the vent tubing in place so it developed a bind and an opening for the oil to spray out of and I think that where all the oil came from because when I drain it, there was only half left in it. I pour in fresh oil and the tubing will snap back in place but the bind or bend have harden to a point where it still letting oil spray through it so I decided to pull it out again and give it a good cleaning with brake cleaner (spraying on mechanic paper towel and rubbing around the area). Then I used silicon around the notch where it will snap into the gear housing and finish up by applying more more silicon around the seal on the outside after I snapped it in. Here a photo but I am wondering if I am hurting anything doing this or will this seal hold? Is there a place I can order new vent tubing for it? Thank you Bill |

Re: Gear box (Transmission) vent tubing leaking
JN3-47559-00 is the part number you are needing. your issue is a common one, and the vent is still available. Also, vent tube should point up, then back down like a upside down "J" to keep oil in and water out.

Found one on Ebay and ordered it.
For now I'll leave it sideways because I don't want to break the silicon seal but when the new one arrive, I will put it in the right way but I am glad it still available. Bill |
