A year ago, my (UTB Romanian/Universal) Montana had a front wheel seal let go.
Dealer replaced the seal under warranty, all good
Ever since, ive had the vent cap on the inboard side of the front wheel hub puking oil if the tractor is in motion for more than 45 minutes (which it is all the time).
Dealer re checked bearing tightness and gear oil levels last year after my complaint on this issue surfacing.
However, to this day it still pukes gear oil from that vent.
Any ideas ?, im tired of cleaning up the oil after each use, Id like to feed the dealer some possibilities. Ill be working with the dealer to get any work covered in some manner (I'm hopeful they will, they've been pretty good about taking care of me so far, and since this issue surfaced after warranty work...)
Tractor only has 270 hrs on it, its basic 60's technology here
I will add that the gear oil puking from the vent is not Hot, nor is the Wheel hub.
