Gotta ask...

What did the fluid look like? Any metal? Any sludge? Water?

Fluid was clear, no obvious contamination. It's been in there for awhile but the tractor only see about 20 hours a year right now.

And just like that, the world was whole again. Things make sense again.... Now if we could just figure out those pallets... :) Good job Kando !

Yea James, if Sparks was just half the man Kando is, we would have the pallet question wrapped up!

Plot twist. The the plug is still stuck and he just posted that picture in an attempt to end this thread.

Agreed... but I will admit, I examined the pic and didn't see a spot of red paint, or other clue that it belonged to the tractor. Maybe Kando cleaned it up for the pic that will go down in history as one of the most significant in TBN history.

He really should have had that pic taken with the plug and easy out posed on a pallet!
