Could anyone tell me whats the Transmission fluid capacity of my Allis 715B Backhoe and the location of the drain plug?
Last night I began to drain the Transmission from what looks like the Drain plug, but I got a very dark "Oil colored" fluid. I know it wasent moter oil, and I know it wasent gear oil. I am thinking it could be hydrolic fluid. It had the consistancy of transmission fluid (a little less viscous then hydrolic fluid) It dident smell or taste like transmission fluid though.
Could this just be very very old trans fluid. I know I have old fluid and it has some water in it because in cold weather the tractor will not move do to the water freezing i guess.
The reason why I thought / think thats the correct drain plug, is because i followed the dipstic - filler tube down, and that plug is on a small box on the transmission directly below it.

According to my 715B service manual, the torque converter/ forward -reverse transmission takes 3 gallons of ATF . There is a wedge shaped sump pan with the drain plug on the side. Directly behind and bolted to the F/R trans is the 4 speed transmission that has a capacity 4 quarts of gear oil.
