I bought a pair of 550's, the nice looking one has a stuck motor. The other one had the hydraulic unit/rear end cover taken off when previous owners were trying to figure out why the rear end was locked up( brakes stuck). I got the brakes off and parts ordered, put the hydraulic unit back on. It had evidently been off for a while, because it is pretty dirty inside. I rinsed it out with diesel fuel, got quite a bit out of it. I'm thinking I need to put something light in there and run it a little bit and drain it out before putting good oil in it. I'm thinking of filling it with ATF or else used motor oil and drive it around a bit and then drain it out. What would you all recommend?? I'm gonna fill the cylinders on the other one with atf and let it set for a while. Chris
