I am new to tractors. Bought a MF 245 with a few hydraulic leaks not too bad. First off I am having a heck of a time finding the m-1127 or equivelent fluid let alone a dealer in California. MY main question is that when I press the rear pto speed lever the fluid sprays out of two galvanized caps in the back. Im certain this has to do with the bulk of the leak unless its suppised to do that... Are the caps supposed to have seals because when I took the caps off, there were none. I tightened them down pretty good and they still spray when the lever is used.

Thank you! My name is Tony and I am new to the site so I apologize if I posted in the wrong place let me know if I need to post in a special Massey Ferguson section or something.
 

I can't change the file size for the picture I tried to upload... I well try to describe it. Basically I have two levers up front for the 236 loader in front of the driver seat and two levers on the right for raising and lowering the 3pt hitch. One lever closer to me is the pto speed which causes the spray. And on the left of diver seat while sitting in it is another hydraulic lever which tilts/extends the top of the hitch out and in. Just behind that lever amidst all the hydraulic hoses are two galvazed caps(must be for optional future add ons) that's there the fluid sprays and leaks from. Again the caps are metal only with no seals inside so metal to metal threads.
 
Im a little lost. But I don't think the
lever that sprays hyd fluid is your pto
lever. I think it is lower down behind your
left leg. You probably have a two stage
clutch for the pto. At least the older ones
do. Do you think these caps are over hyd
quick couplers. Just use good hyd oil.
Every body will have 303 hyd oil.It will be
alright.
