    Name that part

    So I got a leaky transmission, 2008 22ve, I stuck my head in when we were going today to see if I could see the culprit, and surprisingly enough I did. (not very good at automotive/marine mechanics). It was not coming from around the allen bolt. But it was coming from a bolt that according to the ZF owners manual has no name or purpose, though I am sure it does.

    The bolt in question is directly below the allen bolt that resides just to the right (as you are facing) of the shift lever. Here are two pics that have the bolt in question. It is the one directly facing (anterior) underneath the allen bolt, which is the first of the three plugs that are just to the right of the lever and they are facing directly up. This bolt is facing you, just below the allen and just above the circular hole. I am unable to cut and paste so here are two websites that shows what it is.

    At any speed about 10mph the transmission fluid comes a running out of at around 100cc/minute or so.

    Question is, what is the purpose, and can I teflon the threads and cinch it down without causing some major catastrophe.

    BTW I kinda like the gold zf transmission in the first website, sortof internal bling.

    I am sure a supreme tige master can figure this out. Thank yall for all of your help.
    The worst day of boating is still the better than the best day of work......, unless you bend your prop.
