P600b leak

Well I searched and found a hand full of ideas.I figured Ill make my own thread.I threw a belt a while back and the car has been sitting for a while.I realigned the pulleys and put a new belt on.Everything was fine.So today I noticed a bit of oil on the driveway.Put the car up on jack stands and there was a coat of oil all over lower intercooling piping. Cleaned everything up started her up.After about ten mins.Oil was just pouring out of the front of the head unit.I probally know what everyone is going to say but I figured Ill try to get opinion other then sending the head unit back to Procharger.

That would be much better if I can replace it.Is there anyone who had done this? Is something I should know before I cause any damage and spend more money just sending it back to procharger.Good tips,etc.Help would be apreciated.I dont want spend 5bills just for a stinking seal.

Do a search there has been a post about this some time back. I would do it but I have to get my *** back to work... If nothing is found I'll see what I can find later tonight when I get home.

I'm looling at a spare one right now. The manufacturer is Chicago Rawhide. The CR part number is 7915. You should be able to get this # crossed to whatever vendor you choose. There is another # on the box also. 20X35X7 CRW1.

I was able to order the seal from NAPA online. Its a VERY straight forward replacement. Shouldn't take more than ten minutes once the blowers off.

You are stuck with two possible great outcomes;

1, you fix the seal as planned and everything is great again

2, you replace the seal and find that your supercharger is toast, and then is the perfect time to step up to a bigger unit like a D1, or a F1
