My left (sitting on tractor) final drive on my Farmall 100 started whining yesterday while I was out in the pasture. I dropped the pan and was rewarded with the smell of decomposing oily sludge and a gush of water. Now I dang well know I didn't have this when I last checked the oil in the drives,,,,or at least it didn't smell like this thats for sure. I started poking around and discovered that at least one threaded attachment hole on the inside of each final drive has been overtorqued and the casting which backed it up had been broken through. This made a direct entry for the water to enter my drives. I tried my best to clean all of the goo and dirt (there is hard sandy stuff) out of the drives but there is still lots of mess up in there so I reassembled everythig and filled each drive with diesel and ran it around a bit. I am thinking of leaving it in there and just periodically rolling it up and down the drive to get the deisel worked in and the sludge broken down. Do you guys think I should use a heavy 80-140W oil when I go back and refil it or should I stick with HYTRAN and maybe some Lucas additive?????
