Civicboy Posted January 15, 2006 Share Posted January 15, 2006 Hey once again guys, Changed my clutch on the 32 this weekend. Everything went sweet as until I drove hard for a lil bit and at high revs I noticed some gearbox coming out of the bottom of the shifter. (I left the rubber and console surround off just to get a look while driving). Maybe I trucked up a seal when putting back the shifter? Maybe this is normal and the boot catches all the oil and it drains back down eventually? Its got me baffled! I need a solution Thanks dudes Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/101961-gearbox-oil-leaking-out-of-shifter-whats-the-go/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
wrxhoon Posted January 15, 2006 Share Posted January 15, 2006 You have to put the boot back in and it should seal . Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/101961-gearbox-oil-leaking-out-of-shifter-whats-the-go/#findComment-1868771 Share on other sites More sharing options...
TokyoTaxi Posted January 15, 2006 Share Posted January 15, 2006 Once the shifter is back in, put the boot back in place and then put a cable-tie around both the large and small ends of the boot. Zip em up as tight as you can and all should be apples !

FurryBarry Posted January 19, 2006 Share Posted January 19, 2006 Are we talking about an rb20 or 26 here? 'cause the 26 shifter has an inner and outer boot. Maybe you fingered the inner one? I think both the inner and outer boots are the same as in a VL commonwhore, so they should be cheap as dirt if you need to replace them.
