I have a B&M 250 that is throwing lube out the front "nose" where the upper pulley attaches. I've never opened one up before - are there seals/bearings that can be replaced at home, or do I need to send it off to a blower shop?
Thx - Steve

I did the tear down tonight and it looks like it is just the front seal. I'm going to a friends house tomorrow night and press the bearing & shaft out. Should be easy enough to fix myself, so I'll order the parts from The Blower Shop.
Thanks for the help..

hi-perf, you're right on target. The pulley was groved too. Bad seal + groved pulley = hatch full of gear lube.
What causes the groves?
