Am thinking of buying this wheel loader to use around home.I was told this machine was used in a dirt pit on the gulf coast,the bucket is rusted out and it has plenty of rust in and around cab.It runs and sounds good, tires,pins and bushings are good but it is blowing fluid out of breather on top of trans. Can anyone tell me what is causing this and what this machine should be worth? THANKS
blowing oil out transmission breather Sounds like the torque is over filling with oil that means either the drain hose in the bottom of the torque is pluged or the seal is out of the torque
oil blowing out of trans vent Thanks for your reply dirthog.Oil is now comeing out of hole on side-bottom,a small plate fell off.If drain is not pluged up how much labor and $ you think to replace seal are would I be better off to look for something else? THANKS
torque seal have to remove the transmission and torque they are all one on that model and then tear apart torque will take you a couple of days just to get trans out if your not skilled at that type of work. then all you can do is tear it down and find out what is bad just the seal or worse and it will likely be worse
trans-torq Thanks dirthog, mabe this one is not for me.
