    MF-65 leaking Hydraulic oil from clutch casing.

    Thank you to all for your suggestions. Correction ..Yes it is a 1964 not a 74. If "Multi-Power" means "HIgh / Low", yes it has multi-power. No it is not over filled. I will try Low and see what happens. I'll also check the "rubber/springs". Thanks again, will let you know the results.
