    • ZF80A Leak from Plug on Mechanical Selector

      This topic has 3 replies, has 3 voices, and was last updated bymichael sanchez 4 years ago

It appears that the plug is pressed in. Does anyone have an experience with a similar leak, how to remove the plug and whether the new plug can be tapped with hand tools. Thanks in advance.
