Problems That Cause Oil Leaks
A. Drain Plug
A loose drain plug (6) or damaged drain plug ring (5).
B. Oil Reservoir
A damaged oil reservoir (3), missing oil reservoir filter (2), or damaged O-ring (4).
If the oil bath housing (7) is overfilled, oil will leak from vent cap (1).
C. Weep holes
If oil is leaking from the weep holes (15), there is either a leak in the low-pressure
seals (39) or the high-pressure seals (20); or there is piston (13) damage.

A damaged or worn pump shaft seal (8).
