I just got a 1967 Ford 4000 Diesel. First tractor and many questions, I will start a new topic for each to keep to one topic.
The tractor had not been used much over the past few years but runs well, few leaks, some will try to have repaired and some may live with if possible. The back left tire (sitting in the seat) has a oil leak. The previous owner had the seal to get it fix but had not done it. Today I changed the transmission oil as it was milky. Filled it up to the level plug with new oil. The pto / hydraulic oil looks good so I did not drain it. I pulled the level plug to check it and oil poured out, could tell it is way over filled. My guess the previous owner was keeping it above the level because of the leak. I will have to drive the tractor about 6 miles to my home, after that it will be used to pull a 6' box blade at very slow speed. The road is in bad shape so the first few times it will take all day to get it in shape. So may concern is will the high level of oil in the rear end cause problem with the 6 mile drive and all day pull ?
