Unfortunately there isn’t a dealer anywhere close to me.

You are the man! That’s exactly what I’ll do. Also going to pull the pumps and replace those seals. I’ve got to get clean fluid and fix those seals before I can get any kind of idea of what wrong. I appreciate it!

So when I say gear case I’m referring to the gearcase between the hydraulic pumps and the engine. That’s the one that’s overfilled and milky along with the hydraulic oil (10w30) being totally milked. Is there a good way of flushing the hydraulic system other than changing the oil multiple times?
