I have oil blowing out the the gear box and the firewall area of an overhauled engine from a well known company with 30 to 40 hours on it. It started with minor leaking from the front gear box then started in the rear of the engine. Any Idea what could be causing it to blow throught the seals? The engine was stored for a few years have the overhaul . Maybe 6 or more the shop won't tell me the history.
When it was instaledl the oil system was modified with an extra oil cooler. Does anyone know what happens to the engine if it isnt purged and air got into the system?
I am having the seals replaced but what could be causing it?
