Transmission Fluid level problem....

Posted by Jerry S. on December 09, 2003 at 10:53:54 from (12.72.60.167):

I just finished doing full maintenance on my Mitsubishi MT160D, compact tractor that I purchased about 3 months ago. After changing
my Transmission/Hydraulic fluid and installing a new filter, I put
the recommended 12-2/3 quarts of fluid in and expected the fluid to
overflow through the Oil Level Plug hole, per the Manuel. Nothing
came out so I added another quart. Still no overflow. I added
another 2 quarts, still nothing came out the overflow. That's a
total
of 16 quarts of fluid in the system. I ran a wire in through the oil
level hole thinking it may be clogged but there were no
obstructions. Should I drain out some of the fluid or just leave the
3 quarts over the recommended quantity??? I'm worried that the
extra
oil may damage the system. Does anyone have any savvy on this
topic???? My 3 point and transmission are working fine but I'm
concerned about the extra fluid, and why it didn't come out the
overflow hole. Thanks, Jerry S.
