Well got the clutch unstuck on the J.D. 60 tractor hooked it to the spring tooth and pulled it around for awhile.Then I look down and see oil coming out from behind the flywheel.So I took it back to the barn and pulled the flywheel off and everything is covered with oil.I'm not sure where the oil is coming from because of all the oil sprayed everywhere.Going to take some carb spray out to the farm next week,but I can't stand not knowing where the oil is coming from.Can any body give any ideas on the leak.Thanks

Too high oil pressure will pump oil past the seals.

Use new grade 5 or 8 bolts and a torque wrench. or that flywheel will either be coming off on it's own. Or by you to install a taper-loc due to burred splines.
Set the end play at 10 thou.

There is a rubber packing inside of the oil slinger that likely needs replaced. Also make sure the back of the fylwheel has a square headed drive pin sticking out of it to engage into the slot of the oil slinger to keep it turning with the crank so it slings the oil.

Could be the crankshaft oil seal or main bearing housing gasket is bad.
