question 432 Diesel Pack govenor oil

[robin craig]

It is well known that the govenor oil level should checked as part of the first parade of the vehicle.

 

My questions are these:-

 

1 if it is low, where is it going to and what long term remedial action is required over and above filling it up?

 

2 Where is the oil going to and is it visible running down somewhere external to the pack?

 

 

just trying to get to grips with the maintenance of this vehicle.

robin the iol goes to 1 of 2 places usually

1 the throttle control piston on side of gearbox an leaks past the seal on that which is visible if you remove piano covers annd then peel back rubber gator on piston.

2. the front plate on govenor pump nuts work loose that is visible thru front steeringbox access hatch just about .

hope this helps
