Thanks for the replies to my previous post.
I pulled the dust cover on the timing hole and probably a pint of hydraulic oil poured out. So, if I understood your comments correctly, this means the leak is probably from the hydraulic control valve.
1. Is this correct?
2. How do I best get to it? Does the tractor have to be split or can I get access by removing sheet metal? (Have learned that parts diagrams don't show where individual units actually are mounted!)
Thanks again: hope to get this fixed before snow blocks the
barn, so will be able to get going promptly when vegetable season starts in the spring.
