[QUOTE="wd2011, post: 49595, member: 5900"] Yeah that has to be where the oil is coming from. It is definitely chaincase oil. So let me tell you my plan to replace the gasket between the carrier and chaincase and let me know if you think it will work. I am going to break the chains, I just ordered a good chain breaker tool, where can I get the master links from? The specs for the chain in the manual say #100 chain. If I just find a master link for ANSI #100 is that what I need? Perhaps you could suggest one so I can see what I need to look for. After breaking the chain I will disconnect the hydraulic lines from the motor. Unbolt the carrier from the chaincase and slide the motor and carrier assembly as far to the side of the machine as possible. Then I will pull the gasket off and out through the chaincase, then install the new one in reverse. Then slide the motor assembly back in place and get everything back together. I was hoping since I just need to replace that gasket that I can avoid removing the motor and carrier from the machine completely. Let me know if you think that plan could work. Thanks again for your advice! [/QUOTE]
