I now think the hydraulic input shaft may be leaking. At first I thought the build up of mud around it all was dryish, but it isnt, it looks quite wet as are the uni couplings in the engine, which would explain the pool of hydraulic oil in the shroud. Uni joints appear very good as are the splines, no sign of wear. I pulled the shroud out enough at the bottom to have a look at the pipes and it doesnt appear to be freshly wet there, grime build up, but no signs of a massive leak, quite dry and the pipes look to be fine. Is there any way to be sure the input seal has gone?.....I guess not, I'll replace it anyway.</p></blockquote><p></p>
