wyodog Posted August 3, 2014 Share Posted August 3, 2014 I have a old Sheppard 49AD2 on my B55. I keep blowing input shaft seals and I think the regulator might not be working right. Was going to test it, but I can't find for the life of me what the inlet pressure should be. Any help would be appreciated! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1958 F.W.D. Posted August 3, 2014 Share Posted August 3, 2014 Maybe call Sheppard, they're in York, Pa. I needed a rebuild kit one time and called them direct, they were pretty helpful. 1 Quote TWO STROKES ARE FOR GARDEN TOOLS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theakerstwo Posted August 4, 2014 Share Posted August 4, 2014 Some times the seal will blow if there is a restriction on the return hose from the steering box Quote glenn akers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wyodog Posted August 4, 2014 Author Share Posted August 4, 2014 Thanks, FWD. I actually did call them a while back ago. While nice to work with, and they did some digging for me, we found out that they had nothing in the archives on my gear box. The did tell me the box they made to replace my box was end of lifed almost 23 years ago...theakerstwo - Will double check the lines, they are all brand new as I am going a full resto on this B, but doesn't mean something didn't find it's way into the system.Thanks for the help so far.
