Today I've been greeted with a puddle of oil under the gearbox of my Escort. Great. Clearly the occasional drip has turned into a more regular drip, drip, drip!
It looks like the leak is coming from the output seal (maybe a little from the speedo drive too!) so I'll fit a new seal. I can see that its a 38-52-10 sized seal, a quick google search brings up options for single and twin lipped seals.
Does anyone know what type would normally be fitted? can I fit either and is a twin lip type better?
(Btw, The car is fitted with a Manta getrag 240, not a Ford box).
