Looked at a 4320 the other day that I was intending on buying but didn't and was looking for some opinions first. Before starting the tractor I noticed a bit of oil on the oil pan near the transmission housing. Tractor started and drove great. Everything worked as it should. Looking it over after that I noticed engine oil dripping from what my guess was the flywheel/clutch cover between the engine block and transmission. Positive it was engine oil. I am guessing this to be a rear main seal leaking? I also noticed on first start up a bit more smoke than I anticipated. It cleared up after being driven but was quite noticeable on first start. The tractor has not been used much as it is coming out of a semi-retired state where it was used to pull a few hay wagons around a yard a few times a year.
