I took a small rag (and latex gloves) and just sloshed it around and scraped all the sludge out I could. I didnt want to wash with a solvent because I was afraid I wouldnt get it all back out.
The cover I cleaned up.
Some areas are harder to get to than others. And by stirring it up I wondered if it might loosen some bits that if left untouched would go nowhere.
The color of the fluid was more brown than red. And not clear - more like brownish milk than fruit juice.
Was worthwhile to get a fluid and filter change. Maybe with some regular maintenance it will clean itself up over time.
Still learning what this tractor is all about (not only the design, but this specific one - at this age each one has its own quirks). Im getting more comfortable with it by just using and maintaining it. Lots of little things.
A great forum here, thanks to all for sharing the knowledge and wisdom.
