Angry Moser 12bolt

I have a moser 12 bolt that is constantly leaking differential fluid out of the breather valve. Is there any cure for this
thanks

Put a ~12" piece of vaccumm hose on it, and zip-tie it to your upper PHB, and no more leaks.

Thanks for the tip, I already had a hose on it, but it was only abou5-6 inches long. I will try a 12" next.
Thanks

Make sure you don't have too much fluid in the rear end, sounds like what the problem is !!

agreed, it sounds like too much rear end fluid. it leaks out the breather hole till it isnt too full. happened to mine. now it never leaks since i put in the correct fluid level.
