Tranny fluid, 20 years, Cub 70, help?
I have never changed transmission fluid on a garden tractor and am still new to this stuff and learning. My International Cub Cadet 70 was sitting in the previous owners garage for 20 years. I have completed a variety of repairs on it over Winter so hopefully I can get it started within 2 months time. Anyways, I was wondering if I need to change the transmission fluid before even attempting to drive the tractor? I plan on using Pennzoil straight 30 in the transmission. The previous owner said that before she parked it 20 years ago it would only go into 2nd speed and occasionally reverse. Thanks for your time.
