Gear case seal leaking
Original Message   Nov 29, 2008 7:27 pm
Hey guys,

I have a thirty year old Ariens snowblower (model 922024) that runs great. When I changed the fluid in the gear case

everything seemed fine. However, a couple days later I started it up and noticed that after running the auger

the rear seal, where the shaft comes out and goes to the large pulley, was leaking.

The oil I used was gear lube MP80/90EP.  Could this cause the problem? Or could a

30 year old seal be the problem.

Any suggestions???

Brian
