Boring Phil Posted June 21, 2022 Report Posted June 21, 2022 I have a standard three speed transmission with overdrive in my P 14 sedan. It has oil coming out of the nose of the bearing retainer sleeve, dripping into the clutch area. I have pulled the transmission, checked the return oil hole, Put a new bearing retainer sleeve on the transmission, and sealed all of the appropriate holes on the face of the transmission. I have been careful not to cover the oil return hole with the bearing retainer gasket. I did grind an enlargement inside the retainer sleeve (where the internal spiral thread ends) .It still pours oil out through the sleeve along the input shaft. I’ve talked to some pretty knowledgeable people, who have not been able to come up with any better possible solutions than I have. The only other thing I can think of is perhaps someone changed the front bearing on the transmission and put one in that does not have a shield on the back of it. I have not pulled the tranny and checked that yet. It is the simple problems that drive me nuts. I have a 2nd identical OD tranny that was in the car - and it never lost a drop of oil. Any thoughts would be appreciated. Phil L. / Cascade Pacific Plymouth Club Tech Committee. Quote
Dodgeb4ya Posted June 21, 2022 Report Posted June 21, 2022 Does the input shaft bearing have a shield on it facing the inside of trans? Quote

Dodgeb4ya Posted June 22, 2022 Report Posted June 22, 2022 Took care of it....he wasn't too mean to me. Maybe he knows or was taught to be lenient and more tolerant with older folks. Quote
