Farmall C oil leak

ih460 · Mar 6, 2009

Hey yall,
Just wondering, I"ve got a farmall C that has started to pour oil out of the inspection hole on the underside, just behind the oil pan. I suspect it is probaly due to a leak in the rear main seal. If this is the case, can I get to it through the pan or will it need to be broke in two. Anybody know where I can get some seals? Thanks.

Pouring out? Maybe it is over full due to condensation of gasoline and or moisture.

Could be the rear main, or maybe the plug at the rear end of the cam.

Either way, you have to split it and pull the flywheel. Can't get at either one any other way.

Before you go to all that work, check the oil level to make sure it isn't too high, like the Cowman said below. It may not be that, but it is surely a lot less work to try.
