Been reading in the archives about transmission troubles etc. A number of people have talked about flushing with kerosence prior to adding new oil. Stupid question. How is this done?

My SC tractor has been sitting for almost two years. I want to start it up and run it a bit to see where the leaks are so I can replace seals. I know I have a leak at the belt pulley and and the right side brake and have new seals for those.

Should I just add kerosene to what oil I have in there (I think the level is down)and run it a bit before flushing--Or should I drain out what I have in there and add Kerosene and drive it a bit to clean things out? How much kerosene? Any precautions? I would not be working the tractor just driving it around to clean things up. And how much driving should I do to slush it around/ What gears?

Also, I see a plug on the left side under and back of the seat, next to where the hydraulic hose is attached. This is where I fill it, right? (There is alsa plug on the hydraulic hose "T"--I assume for hyraulic fluid adding). There is also a litte plug just down the housing (looks like about 3/8"). Is that where the oil level is checked. I understand the capacity to be just shy of 11 gallons. Correct?

Any comments would be appreciated.

I had to do that with my SC. I drained the old oil out and put 5 or maybe a few more gallons of kerosene in it. Drove it around awhile although never run it in 4th. When I was done with that I let it soak for a few days and drained it. You"ll be amazed as to what comes out of there.
