Gold jubilee transmission oil

Austingarner2005 · Dec 31, 2012

Ok I have looked up and down and can't find what I'm looking for I'm having a issue with the oil leaking from the timing hole under the hydro pump:shocked:, so I found out by searching that there was a cotter pin drain hole, so I found it (I think) one I found was by what looks to be the trans fluid main drain. Is that the correct one?:confused3:

I have what I would call a decent leak from that hole and by the started it smells like gear oil thinking the trans and not engine. I check the oil level by pulling the plug beside the flush mounted slot head bolt on the pass side just above the floorboard I think it was 1" 1/8 hex head( really hope that was the right one) and got right at a gallon of fluid out

, when I check from the fill plug from the shifter plate it was all but 1/4"

from the top of the highest gear. Would that have caused my leak that I was having?:anyone:

And I know there is a lot about witch oils to use in the different sumps, but can some one give me those specs also.:confused3:

I'm sorry if I have re entered any treads I just couldn't find what I was looking for.:shhh:

I just bought this tractor and really like it and want to do my best to keep it functioning and living like it needs to.:thumbsup:

Thanks for the help:dance1:

it uses utf oil in hyds sump, and gear oil in the trans and diffy.. or utf in all 3.

fill level for hyds via dipstick. trans via that check plug, and diffy by a check plug on the back of the left trumpet

utf is sold at walmart, tsc, farm stores.. napa.. etc.

anything meeting m2c134 spec is fine..

Another question is it normal for the hydro pump to make noise like a deep squil when cold, went away after using foe a little while?

Soundguy · Jan 1, 2013

squealing pump is cavitation.. the reason could be:

water in oil

air in oil ( foaming from an input leak from an oring or shaft seal )

too heavy of an oil

squaling from the relief can be caused by thick cold oil and or a stoppage downstream / deadheading of a remote or a sticking unloader..e tc.

however relief is at the base of the center section near your right heel.. not the pump.. so you probably heard the pump if it came from the back right of the engine ahead of your right foot.

It sounded like it was the pump area but I didn't look at it real hard I just figured it was cold was around 30 when I started. So I guess a fluid change would be due, it looked clean a little high on the stick but wasent milky. I do know I still have the old vane pump, all is strong and responds like it should, just that noise when cold guess it sounded like it was under strain. Had a rotating box scrape on it.

as long as it is a clean utf oil and not a heavy gear oil, it should be ok.

if it is super cold, let it warm up and circulate before lifting the 3pt and it will be much happier. IE.. may be no need to change if all else is well and oil is not dirty or wet.

10-4 when I use it Friday morning ill let her run for a while to warm up.

yep.. if the oil is clean, not wet and correct type, and if it's 30 out.. start her and come back in 3-5 minutes.. she will probably not complain at all. with the 3pt lift down and no load on the hyds the unloader will just dump the oil to sump and let it circulate. with a 2gpm at warming idle speed.. you will circulate your oil volume about one time for each minute you let it set...

many times trans can be stiff as well with cold thick oil..
