I've got some Westinghouse BE Gearboxes that tend to leak excessively (Big shock there). The problem is after they've been R&R'd with all new seals, gaskets and such, they will run fine for only 3 months or so. Having to remove gearboxes every 3-6 months is BS.
So, my question is: Has anybody had any luck using any kind of "stop leak" product (i.e. Transmission stop leak, etc.) without any negative results? I'm thinking about placing some kind of these additives to the GB oil when I replace the seals, or even on failing seals as I feel like I'm going around in endless circles trying to combat these oil leaks.
