Hi guys,
just finished putting together a mates GT4... when we fired it up it was in neutral and it ran OK, but all of a sudden there is gearbox oil all over the top of the box and in a huge puddle on the ground. the gearbox had just been refilled, it was filled from the top, but only up to the filler hole on the side (as per the manual) any ideas? -------------------- ST184R - Project 5S-GTE - Audio: Eclipse CD4000, SW7200, XA1000, SC8265, EA2000 Engine: Greddy eManage, 360cc Injectors, CT26, FMIC, Walbro 255, K&N Pod, Blitz MSTT, HKS SSQV, 3SGE Head Swap, Suspension/Brakes: craftz coilovers, Gen 3 Camry Hub Swap Wheels: ROH Boost-R 17x7 - Times: N/A: 16.73, FI: Coming Soon

yeah I'm actually wondering if maybe the fill bolt just wasn't put in or something simple like that, for there to be oil all over the top of the transmission, that's an odd place for it to leak from otherwise, unless it's just not mounted properly to the block, but even then... can that happen? It wouldn't have even started if it wasn't bolted up properly.
