[QUOTE="BobMelroe, post: 26280, member: 2763"] Yep. Thanks Jerry. Got it all drained...... Blocked it up and pulled the wheels off. That made things much easier. The right side was pretty clean. Then I opened the left...... Found the mysterious black goo, small pieces of metal (looks like old cotter keys), a 3/8" ball bearing, half of an old clutch disc, and..........a chisel. I think the ball bearing was a remnant of a bearing change, one has been replaced. Was puzzled when I first pulled it out though, had to sit for a minute and go through my mental manual and try to think of where it might have came from. The chisel was quite a shock! It's about 7" long. Not really a desirable item to have bouncing around with a bunch of spinning gears and chains. I don't think so anyway. But I did find a split chain. Not broken yet, but one link had split. And I need to replace 2 idler gears. One the teeth are about gone, and the other the teeth are so worn they look like toothpicks. Everything else on both sides looks surprisingly good. Almost new. So the idler gears and the chain have been added to my shopping list. Have to drain and clean the lines yet, probably do that today. Thanks again for the help. Greatly appreciated!! [/QUOTE]
