woops....Cub problem

Posted by Josh Hoffman on August 19, 2005 at 03:03:56 from (199.208.157.35):

I have a 1950 Cub, last week I had a noise coming from 1st gear when it got hot....I checked the oil level & it was very low...(I also discovered I mistakingly put in hydraulic jack oil when I changed lube last spring)...so, I drained what was in there & mistakingly added too much gear lube (5qrts instead of 3 &1/2pnts).....yesterday I had a mess of gear oil on my barn floor...now, I know I've got a slow leak when @ proper level, but, if I drained it all out one more time & added the right amount, do you folks think I could make it another month or two w/o having to bust it all apart (I know my left rear brake is soaked in gear oil, but, I don't think that should hurt anything)...or, do I take the time now to take it all apart...thanks..Josh in Maine
