1. The H was badly leaking oil from the rear seal. We split the tractor and replaced the seal as well as all of the little gaskets that are in that area. I took the top and bottom pieces that the rear seal lies in to a machine shop and had the surfaces ground. We put everything back together and when the tractor heats up, it still leaks a fair amount although not as bad as it had. What else can I do to stop it from leaking? I don't worry too much about a little leak. Oil is cheap.
2. Fifth gear has a rattle in it and the shift lever seems awful sloppy, especially in reverse. I haven't tore into the transmission yet but can anyone give me any hints / suggestions as to what may need replaced / repaired? A lot of the shifters get loose where the pin holds the lever in the case. there is a round bushing that the pin goes through. sometimes you can replace the pin and or the bushing. if the hole in the case is worn you can drill it out and use a larger pin.
3. The ammeter is showing a slight discharge when the tractor is running. It is still the original positive ground six volt system and I just replaced the battery. What should I check? Is it distributer or magneto? Does the battery run down? the ammeter could be wired in backwards.

To top that off, you have a cup with oil in it ("why would you want to lubricate your carburetor?"). On closer examination (and some reading in a AC D-14 service manual), I found out that this is a pretty ingenious method of cleaning the air in the tractor's intake tract.
