lesco 52" ztr drives in circles

So what did you 'lock' with the thread locker?...
where did you put it... and How much did you put there... :smile:KennyV
 
I put a small bead around the seal where the shaft goes to. Like you would with a gasket. You think some came loose and gummed the drive shaft up?
 
Did you get it on a shaft or at the case side of the seal?...

Also most thread lockers 'wick' into very small spaces... you don't want that stuff anywhere around small passages or valves.. KennyV

Its possible... When the leak stopped I never opened it. I had the ztr in my garage for a few weeks. When I went to move it back to shed, found this out. If thats the case how would I clean it out? I dont think brake cleaner work, maybe acetone?
 
Ouch... Red is permanent locker, The only thing I know that will get it off is Heat...
You may have some unpleasant disassemble ahead...

Can you post a picture of the shaft seal....?
Is it near the final drive or the input?
What part of the drive is locked? :smile:KennyV
