[QUOTE="callmefence, post: 1394261, member: 24947"] I went out this morning to get my 4020 ready. Hasn't been run in probably 6 weeks. Hook up battery charger, check coolant and oil , both good. I start the tractor it starts and runs normal but almost instantly begins dumping fluid out of front engine area. I turn it off . Every thing is covered from fan slinging oil. I removed the fan belt and still can't tell for sure because of the oil coming off the crankshaft pulley. Finally by blocking off the crankshaft with a piece of cardboard. I'm able to narrow the leak down to the front seal area. I notice the oil is looking and smelling more like diesel than oil. Check the oil and it's 2.5 inches overfull very thin. No leak while tractor is off. Running huge leak. I only ran the tractor a few minutes total and I captured a half gallon of the oil/diesel. And that much more is easily spilled and on the tractor and me. Any suggestions much appreciated [/QUOTE]
