209dragbanshee Posted September 3, 2013 Report Posted September 3, 2013 I have a drag banshee and some how alcohol got into the case with the tranny oil. Never seen this and haven't taken it apart yet any suggestions?? Quote
J-Madd Posted September 3, 2013 Report Posted September 3, 2013 Stuck float AND bad crank seal are about the only way I see that happening. Quote
209dragbanshee Posted September 3, 2013 Author Report Posted September 3, 2013 But even if the float was stuck only the fuel from the bowls and what was left in the cylinders would go in...? I have a pump on it so no way would there be as much as there was from just the bowls. Quote
Dixie normus Posted September 4, 2013 Report Posted September 4, 2013 Either way bad crank seal or cases are leaking somewhere 1 Quote
J-Madd Posted September 8, 2013 Report Posted September 8, 2013 Is the seal around the clutch actuator in place? You could have fuel pool on the cases and enter there I'd think. Quote

hoppedupandcutdown Posted September 9, 2013 Report Posted September 9, 2013 The banshee cases have a hole clear through the center, fuel should hit the ground, not pool up. Quote
sleeper06 Posted September 9, 2013 Report Posted September 9, 2013 Pressure test b4 your tear into it Quote
209dragbanshee Posted September 9, 2013 Author Report Posted September 9, 2013 Haven't had time to look into it thanks for the good info tho! Quote
J-Madd Posted September 9, 2013 Report Posted September 9, 2013 The banshee cases have a hole clear through the center, fuel should hit the ground, not pool up. That can get clogged up, but yea it usually goes right through. I had it pool up on my billet cases on the bench the other day, and made me think of it as I was cleaning around the clutch arm. Quote
