That's great news and great that he stepped up and is paying for it.

Our TYM has about 1000 hours on it. It had a fuel leak when it was new which took only minutes to fix. It never saw a dealer or needed a part except persistent leak from sight window on the transmission. I replaced it three times already. It will be OK for some time and then it will start leaking again. I tried to glue it, seal it but so far with little success. Beside that it is a workhorse.

try shoo goo or automotive goop. Silicone with glue. Good stuff. Obviously make sure the surfaces are clean and dry. I usually use alcohol to clean first...

I tried epoxy and oil pan sealant so far. I will give it one more try.

I am truly impressed with these "goo" products. I bet that will work, as long as your surfaces are clean,clean,clean and dry. You'll probably have to drain the fluid down first.....

I just put the tractor nose down slope to drop the level below the sight window.

This is my favorite stuff for anything that needs a seal. The stuff really works and is time tested been around for a long time. I sealed a fuel tank on a small engine back in the 70's and its still holding to this very day! Amazon.com - Seal-Allｮ 1 oz Adhesive - Automotive Adhesives And Sealants
