I just purchased a farmall 140 tractor. The hydraulic fluid resevoir at the front of the tractor was dry I keep adding trans hydraulic fluid but its still dry. Any ideas? Is there a plug to check the transmission level?

If you are talking about the cap that is just in front of the distributor that is the OIL fill cap and what you are putting in is going into the oil pan. The Hydraulic system is closed and the fill is a plug on the left side of the Hyd. system just in front of the battery.

Thanks for the info. I'll change the oil. How do you know if the hydraulic and transmission is full.

The hydraulic reservoir is the block under the gas tank. There is a fill port on the side. With the rockshafts in the rear position, fill to the bottom of the fill hole. Be careful when you remove the fill plug, as the reservoir is not vented and tends to develop pressure in there. If the reservoir is over full, it will blow out when you remove the plug. The transmission level plug is on the left hand side and is likely behind the brake rod for the left side. You may have to remove the clevis pin to get to the plug. This is in the front of the transmission, left side, just behind where the torque tube attaches to the transmission. It's a 1/4 or 3/8 inch pipe plug. Transmission is full if oil comes out. The tractor also has a final drive reservoir on each side. It lubricates the pinion gear, the bull gear and the axle bearings. The reservoirs are the pans you see under the tractor where the drawbar attaches. Level should be up to the bottom of the fill hole which is a 1 or 1 1/2 inch pipe plug with a square hole for a 1/2 inch square wrench. There is no drain on the final drives. You have to remove the pans to change the fluid.
