PRM160VR2 problem,any ideas?


Featured Posts

Gearbox was working fine except for a leaking oil seal on the output shaft. decided to replace seal and removed shaft and drive coupling flange but thought I had to remove oil pump as well, this latter was not needed as I found out later. Put a new seal in , replaced shaft and oil pump topped up with oil to full on the dipstick, turning the shaft by hand ok. Start engine,ok, won't go into forward or reverse, the lever is working ok,plenty of travel. Have I got air in the oil  system, if so how do I prime the pump? Is it something else I've done? Any suggestions gratefully received ,thanks in advance.

Have you fitted the oil pump upside down? If you have it will not pump because it is running the wrong way. It is designed to fit either way up dependant on the direction of rotation of the input shaft.

There is enough oil in the box I suppose?
