I have spoken to the dealer this morning and he admitted they don't know which one is leaking but to cover themselves they just reseal BOTH drive motors. He said that there is no timing involved with the drive motor but the gears all had to come apart in the chaincase. I just received a service manual and the manual claims you just unbolt the drive motor from the "carrier" and just bolt it back on. The only gear I see is not a gear but a chain sprocket. The manual refers to another manual (Hydrostatic Motors Repair Manual) for information on replacing the seal in the drive motor. But it appears the outer carrier seal should also be replaced. This all appears to be done without having to go into the chaincase. It actually looks pretty simple according to the manual. Graham.</p></blockquote><p></p>
