Title: rear breather question
Post by: dirtyjeep95 on March 23, 2008, 06:34:33 PM

why would I get diff fluid coming out of the breather line and running down the top of the fuel tank? over full maybe? what else could it be? thanks, clint

The only thing I can think of is that it may be over filled. Have you added or changed the diff fluid lately?

Over full, really hot, or crappy oil that's foaming

A partially plugged breather can also cause increased pressures.

alright thanks, i'll have to take the vent out and check it, cuz it should be down by now where it shouldn't leak

I would drop the cover and take a look. May have gotten water in there.
