2.3 TVS heated up melted he TVS rotor coating right off and bonded to the case bearing heated up so much it caused a snout bearing failure. It also heated up on the drivers side rotor and caused the rotor to eat the case

Interesting. My KB 2.8 seems to have a slight leak out of the snout to case area or maybe out the seal at the end of the snout. This a common issue or easy fix?

 

[Jokerzl]

It's an easy fix but expensive in parts

 

[Jokerzl]

Depending on if there issues

Blower has less than 3k miles on it.

May be a bad seal
