Subject: | coolant leak 582 |
My newly serviced 582 has a coolant leak and I'm looking for input. The
leak comes out right at the drain port for the water pump, but does not
appear to come through the drain. I'm having a hard time to locate it
exactly. It's a fairly large leak and should be easier to pin down but
the number of surfaces coming together at this point is hampering my
ability to see clearly.
In this image you are looking at a screen capture of the top case, there
is no corresponding hole in the bottom case. I have checked the
crankcases and the oil from the cross-shaft compartment and found no
coolant.
I'm hoping the water pump cover is leaking but I'm curious about the
hole indicated, which also comes out in the same area. Is this hole
connected in any way to the water jacket? Is the any source of coolant
here except the cover leaking on the water pump?
Any experiance you can share will be helpful as I am not keen to split
the case looking for this leak.

Subject: | Wheel bearing seals |
Is there another source for the inner wheel bearing seal? I have the standard Douglas
wheel with golf cart tire. Various checklists for the annual condition
inspection include packing the wheel bearings, but to do so on the inner bearing
requires probably destroying the inner seal. I have purchased these before
from the McBeans, but dont seem to be connecting with them.

This should be a vent between the outer ceramic seal and
the enter seal. If it is leaking from there then the ceramic
outer seal is leaking.
This space is also provided to vent heat from between the seals.

Jeff,
I can't believe I found it, but I was sure that the last time I got new
seals I got them locally. I found one in it's original box. It is a
Carquest 471633.
Hope this helps,
Lowell
