My 90 has started to smell of gear /diff oil Dosent appear to be leaking on to the ground when its parked up but really smells whilst driving it.
The slop in the transmission appears to have got bigger too.

Any bright ideas or solutions before I go buy a peg for my nose.

underneath , its the bit between yer injun and yer g/box. sometimes they have a bung plug fer when you go wading. if yer front g/box seal is leaking and yer bung is in, yer bell housing could have oil in it. in which case get it out quick before yer clutch goes!

arrrr. wise words spoken by slobitha. i too have noticed the odour of ep90 but i thought that was the joy of owning a tractor. i have recently put a wade plug in the bell housing. will take that out tomorrow and see what i get.
