First thing that comes to mind is that the filler plug hasn't been tightened..
Or it's fallen out . . .Quote:

Check its tension while your checking the breather line.
G'day Hodge,
It is definitely a tough query mate. Personally never known oil rising out of the top end. Only a theory below in case your breathers are blocked.

Pressure is a strange beast, pneumatic & hydraulic combined I guess ?

Thanks Mark. That is a good read. I did do 3 water crossings 3 weeks ago so.... who knows.
Ironically I was doing the oils easter weekend anyway so... go figure.
I'll also be fitting the proper breathers which I procrastinated for too long now.

If you get stuck with any fittings or hose,
Yell out I have plenty here, if required
Your diff is probably full of water and oil then I reckon.Quote:
