I am looking at a white 2-30 tractor made by Iseki. It has been setting for about 7 years. I drove it and it puked oil out the top of gear shift lever. It has been setting for about 7 years. I checked the transmission oil and drained out about a gallon to get to the proper level. Boot on shift lever is cracked. Oil looked like liquid peanut butter. I'm sure it is water that has gotten into transmission over the years. Only has 478 hours on it. I plan on putting new oil in transmission if I buy it. Is this tractor worth taking a chance on or would having water in transmission and being over full over the last 25 years already done to much damage? I'm sure owner never checked it. It sat inside most of the time, only he let it set out in the rain to wash it off. Tractor is in perfect condition otherwise.

My Allis B used to do that. Rain would run down the shifter lever from a bad boot. Never did any harm. I would drain it out the bottom befor running would mix it up. Same thing with an old M&M SP combine tranny.

Just check it to see that nothing's cracked from the water freezing in there if it was left out and there was a lot of water in it. Other than that, just do like Texax Dave says. Oh and change the boot on the gear shift so's that don't happen again. I had a White 2-85 that was like that, drained about a pint of the clearest sparkling water out of it before milk shake-like oil started coming out, flushed that bad boy out and I was good to go. Good luck on that.

I wouldn't be afraid of it if you can buy it right. Drain, put new oil and a pint of seafoam in it and run long enough to get it hot. Then doit again.
