Hello, again! I'm in need again, so here I am. This is nothing dramatic but I do not know how to find the answer...so why not YT?
I'm getting my 1944 2N ready for a winter sleep by changing oil, filter, etc. I've always checked the hydraulic fluid with the dip stick at the right side. It says "full." However, when I removed the cover by the gear shifter, there was no oil around those gears. This troubles me. How much oil should be visible when I shine the flashlight down into the gear chamber? I know the capacity is 5 gallons but the dipstick still says "full." The tractor is on a very slight grade...maybe 10 degrees...but it is not enough to move all the oil away from the gears. Thanks for the help for anyone who takes the time.
