HELP!!! reverser problems

Post by CBroerman » Tue May 12, 2009 11:16 am

Ok well our reverser has been whining so i did some checking and the dip stick up by the brake pedal (im guessing that this is the reverser) is EMPTY and the one by the shifter/left turning lever (also guessing is the tranny) is DOUBLE what is should have in it... Is there a seal inbetwine them that has gone bad and drained all the oil from one into the other???
Also the number plate says that it is a 350CE, what does the "CE" stand for? any help would be greatly apriciated

Yes, it's a common issue with C-series 350s. The hydraulic steering clutch packs are powered by the reverser. When they leak, the reverser pumps all its oil into the transmission.

Ok, how much of a job is it to change the seals? Do they regularly go bad or from sitting alot. What kind of oil does the reverser take? Also does anyone know where we can get a shop manual for this 350C?
Thank you
