Mechanic just serviced the engines and changed the oil in the gearboxes at the same time. We also had the same guys clean back , prime and repainted the engines, we felt this may have caused and issue somewhere ?,the twin disc guy is coming on Wednesday to inspect / review and see if he can rectify. He will place a gauge directly on the gearbox to see what the pressure is doing. The boxes are 25 years old, but talking to twin disc they said they have gotten up to 30,000 hours out of these boxes in the past. We don't believe it is the sender , but can't rule that out yet.
Hopefully will know more Wednesday afternoon.
Just thought I would put it out there and see if people have had experience with these boxes?
