Hello Folks
I notice that the ATF for the power streering in both the tractors I look after is pretty discoloured, and who knows when it may have been changed. - is there a procedure for doing this ??
One of these tractors is a Massey 165, the other (for my sins, man I must have done something wrong in a previous life, cause what else would have possessed a dear friend, one who I cannot refuse help too, to buy a Leyland 344 ??) is the Leyland.
The Leyland also has a water contaminated transmission case (yes I know replace the shift lever boots) that we have already tried unsucessfully to flush once. I think I read on here that it is possible to use diesel as a flushing agent for the transmission - basically warm machine up, drain oil, fill with diesel, run breifly and work hydraulics, drain and refill with fresh oil (many $$$ worth !!)
Any thoughts
Cheers - Foster
