Last time I started the W-6< It was ok, then after this parade i was in last summer, I accidently forgot to fill the hydralic tank, and when i was all done, ready to go home, I went to start it, & drive it home, and the thing would barely run, I looked at the hyd pump? and it was smoking hot, so i said ohh boy , i guess it was low on fluid, so I parked it on side of road, left it there for two night,s, went back to it to start it, and it ran ok with the fluid in it, But i got a little closer to the House and it was leaking fluid underneath engine at the clutch housing alot of fluid came out , so i shut it off, and i towed it home, I didnt mess up the pump, But,,,? How did it get into the sump, and start to leak out the bottom where the clutch is? I smelled the oil in the sump, and it smelled like hyd fluid, and was thin like water just like hyd fluid, So,,,,, ? Now, what do I do, This thing was jury rigged for a loader and then the hyd tank lines were capped off,so the two line,s to the back from the front pump had no where to run to and just stopped, I looked at the line,s, and they were alway,s vibrating and hot to the touch, and I have a feeling that the fluid had no where to go and just backed up pressure when it went to the back , & there wasnt any return line to the front so it could run smooth in a circuit, around, and back to the front pump, Could it have blown a seal in the clutch area and that,s why it started to leak when I was bringing it home? I really need help on this as it is detrimental to tractor being redone the right way,
