I have changed the filter 3 times during this problem got them from two different dealers and both gave me the same # except for once I got the # for GC2300

Well it did it again today so back to the drawing board its not the fluid. I put Permatran 821xl fluid in it good for transmission and hydraulic

Mowed with old fluid back in tractor for 3 hrs. this weekend worked just fine so it looks like fluid is the problem guess time will tell. Question what fluid you guys running in your MF tractors I will have to change it sometime.

Lever is in lock position.

If putting old fluid back in doesn't work. I'm going to try putting the bucket on and running it some. I usually leave the bucket off when I mow grass much easier. I put 2.9 gal in it.

This tractor dosen't have a backhoe and i don't have the front end loader on it. I removed the pickup screen and it was clean. The picture of the glass was taken while the fluid was coming out it was part of a video . Asked the mechanic at local MF dealer he said it shouldn't need to be on. I...

The fluid wasn't cold tractor had been running for a hour or better.

I put the old fluid back in the tractor today. Grasping at straws now.

Shot video and uploaded pictures you can see sight glass isn't full but fluid is coming out fill tube.

Permatran 821XL SEMI SYNTHETIC The old didn,t say semi synthetic on can

I smelled oil so I stopped the tractor and got off and I could see the fluid coming out of the vent hole slowed the RPM down and it stopped.

It blowed fluid out again today so I emptied the tractor and checked the intake screen and it was clean. Is it possible the fluid is bad that is the only thing that is different from when it worked.

Pushed a toothpick in hole at the side of cap and could see it from bottom of cap

Did like this tractor a lot, now thinking about trading for a new one .

Drained fluid and changed the filter again put a new filter on it again this time put the filter on that matched the one I took off turns out it fits the GC2300 it is about a inch taller. That didn't help turn out I think it does it when I run on a hill on my property. Talked to mechanic at...

No I didn't remove i took it out the last time I did service and it looked like new so this time I didn't remove it.

Where would the suction side be on a tractor like this

yes. Besides that isn't where the fluid is coming out .

Looked at filter again I think it has the right one # on filter 6258877m91 so thinking waste of time to change

Saw it coming out today fluid loaming out around plug I'm going to go to another MF dealer and get another filter I think the one close to me sold me the wrong one and it is causing this somehow. My sight glass leaked the first year I had tractor. I replaced it with a new one with JB weld has...

No I start tractor an it comes up in glass when I lift the mowing deck.

Fluid, only coming out cap.

Changed the fluid and filter in my GC1715 tractor and now it blows fluid out the cap. I don't think it is over filled sitting in the garage with motor off oil isn't showing in the glass. I mowed with the tractor last week for three hours and it worked great. This week mowed 1.5 hours it blowed...

Do any of you know how to replace sight glass in rear end of a GC1715 or where I can buy a manual. It doesn't look hard except for the rear PTO going thru the piece that holds sight glass.

I noticed this week the rear end is leaking around the gasket where rear end bolts together it leaks about 5 or 6 drops a week. Looks like a big job to fix. It only has 50 hours and it should be under warranty. I can't decide to have it fixed afraid they could make it worse. I checked the bolt...

Do you think this is it .

my 50 hour service is coming up i am not sure i found the transmission suction filter it shows it in the book with a bolt head.I found something in about the location but it has a allen wrench head. Is this it and do you have to remove the tire to get it out. It is a GC1715
