Determined earlier this week that the front trans seal is leaking into bell housing. But, I have no idea how bad it really leaks because I haven't owned the tractor very long. I'm
wondering what others think about putting a little simple green or kerosene into bell housing through timing hole to thin out and clean up the watered down trans oil. Then keep an
eye on the trans oil to see if it is necessary to split the tractor to change out the seal.
Also, I've got a step up/down Sherman in this Jubilee. I've heard that the Sherman also changes the PTO speed, so even though the ground speed is slow enough for a tiller it still
doesn't work well. Is this true? Sherman tag on steering wheel makes me believe you can still maintain PTO speed by increasing throttle.
