Re: (ET) Transaxle leak

[Michael J DeLiso <mjdeliso juno com>]

Not hard to fix, remove the spacer and added reverse idler, and reverse
gears from old tranny.
A lot of the parts and gears are the same in the 2300 series. 
I would think a bunch of the 1716 tranny parts are the same too, same
case, axle housings.
But I do not have parts list for 1716.
