Few days to Sprint and engine out again. (Oil leak found)

[Mark_Ritchspeed]

Well, as I suspected the leaking oil is coming from the main shaft on the gearbox and thats whats ****ing up my clutches. Wont have time to fix this one for the weekend, so will be trying a R19 16v box instead which I have in the workshop.

Hopefully it'll be ok for a while and give me the time to get the seal done on the Kangoo box in the next few weeks. We'll see. :?

whats special about a kangoo box any way?

[Martin]

shorter ratios for better acceleration.

What are the ratios for that Kagoo box?

I'm not 100% sure of the full ratios on the box, but the final drive is a 4.22:1 and is the lowest geared box that'll fit as far as I can tell.

1st gear is very short , but the rest of the ratios are very good for track and competition use.

Will get the seal sorted on it and then refit the box when I get time.
