My late 80's jd 185 hydro has been going very slow lately I replced the drive belt as it was slipping and it's no faster.. So now I want to change the fluids in there rear hydrostatic drive. Question is how do I drain the hydro fluid and what fluid do I replace it with? There is a drain for the transmission fluid but nothing for the hydro.
