so when I was cleaning up my supercharger to put back on motor I noticed alot of dark oil (didnt smell of engine oil) in the lower part of the super charger around the inlet opening.
also when I removed the super charger orginally it was sitting in a puddle of clearish fluid (super charger oil) in the valley of the intake manifold. I just assumed that the previous owner over filled or missed when he was filling the unit.
anyway I have noticed that the snout is clean with no strange oil fly back on snout (i have searched but doesnt lead me anywere) so I am assuming again that the front seal is ok. but the snout is sealed to main body with clear silicone???? and there were no seals under the blower top outlet and no seal on the rear where the inlet attaches to it.
ok so what am I missing here. I am assuming that the clear silicone is not good enough for this (should be anerobic sealer like the GM stuff???). so is there a seal that seperates the snout from the blades or why would the oil get inside the blower.
the only other place I have seen oil is in the intercooler but that was a small amount. everything else looks clean of oil.
where do I get parts for this blower.
thanks
