My Bert Gen 2 tranny is leaking out the tail shaft. I replaced the seal several times but it just keeps leaking. It is a slow leak but it makes me nervous as to how much fluid it may be losing during the course of a race plus it's just a mess. Is there something further in the tail housing that might be wrong and allowing it to leak? Thanks for any halp in advance. John 1*

Did you replace the tailshaft bushing as well? If it's damaged or missing, the extra slop will ruin the rear seal in a hurry.

Check your drive shaft yoke I have seen some of the cheaper ones that don't have a plug behind the splines & it will leak out there. its an easy fix just get the proper size freeze plug.
