I own a Murray lawn tractor with a Peerless Tecumseh Transaxle Model #MST-206-502C. I removed it from the chassis in order to change the fluid. It had become hard to shift and the mower was slower than it was a few years ago. I was wondering what type of fluid it uses and how much? I found some information on the net saying that it takes 16 ounces of 80w90 gear oil. Does anyone know anything about this tranny?
I pulled the rubber plug and drained what was in there. It was pretty dark and not much came out. Saw a small leak from the brake seal but it was not that bad.
I keep reading about hydrostatic trannys. I don't think this one is but I could be wrong. Anyone know?
