I have a 2007 3240HST with cab. I am having a problem with a hydraulic leak when the tractor gets worked hard and builds heat. Either with a bunch of loader work or a snowblower on the PTO or a movwer deck. Once you have used it for awhile it will start leaking hydraulic fluid out a little spigot at t he centre bottom of the driveline. It will leak maybe 3/4 of a cup of fluid. Once it cools down it won't leak anymore unless you work it hard again. Just driving it around it doesnt seem to get warm enough to leak.

Any ideas where to start? I'm guessing tractor is going to have to be split which I'm not crazy about with having cab on it but I don't think I am going to have a choice. Rather have an idea where I'm going when I do that.

Thanks
Jon
