On early TA tractors (specifically F-400), how fast should the oil move from the rear frame (transaxle) to the center section (TA and clutch housing)? And what is the pathway?
I ask this because I pulled the 3/8" plug on the bottom of the center section and only got about 6 quarts and then it stopped without the slightest flow. I had assumed there was a flow through the unshielded IPTO ball bearing at the joint between the two large castings. I want to use the bottom plug (located in the IPTO driven gear bottom cover) of the center section to supply oil to the Borg-Warner clutch pump that I recently installed. It runs off the front of the crankshaft.
I wanted to send the return oil to the rear frame for cooling purposes. It looks to me that it will have to go the check level plug on the center section as I will quickly run out of oil.
I was always under the impression that there was only one fill point (spare shifter opening cover) for both parts of the tractor and it took fifteen gallons.
