[AJD] Water condensing in the reduction cover/housing

[Bill Thompson]

Chris,
I know what you mean, I bought a parts tractor, and the first thing I did,
was to take out the plugs out, a got a 5 gallons. And a half, boy was I
surprised; yes what you said is right.  Good idea to drain them, so that
they wont frieze up, and break. Something. Have fun.    Bill.

    How is it that so much water can build up in the
reduction gear housing (right side of the tractor
covering the clutch pulley and input to the
transmission)

    Most of the tractors I buy around here have a lot
of water in there.   I am sure that I have accused a
tractor or two of leaking water before I figured out
to drain that area first..  Is it just a great place
for moisture to condense?  Via the warming and cooling
of the engine and oil?
