I agree with Hugh. Most of that water gets in there from condensation. If the tractor does not work enough for the transmission to get hot, it just builds up in there and it will do it quicker than you think. I've seen water dripping off my tractors when they got really cold during a cold spell (like now) and then a warm spell comes with humid air and they sweat like an iced tea glass in the summer. This is bound to happen internally as well as on the outside. This is not a problem if the tractor works a lot. I plowed many hours in my youth with an MD and a 3 disk mounted plow. It did not take me long to learn not to rest my feet on the platform as it would get hot enough to burn your feet, even through your shoes. Blocks of wood to rest your feet on or some other fixture not part of the platform to use for a footrest was essential. We never had a problem with water in the transmission though.
