Red fluid?

[bywaterdustin2]

So after cleaning the snow and putting out hay I noticed some red drops on the snow where the tractor went. What is this and where should I start looking for leak? I still have more snow to clear and need to help neibors with chores. Wondering if I need to worry.

I'd look at your transmission, see if the underside is wet.

Your tractor is bleeding

There are no red fluids from the factory but someone could have used another brand somewhere. I have red grease on my tractor but that would really look like drips in the snow.

Maybe after the snow melts you'll find the rest of that rabbit you ran through the blower.

The oils in the tractor should be amber color. I would check the fluid in the radiator after it cools. Should be able to check the level and color in there.

If you have loaded tires it may be beet juice.

My guess, grease that has gotten a little wet and then dripped.

Not sure about Canada but here in the states our off road diesel is dyed red. That's the way it looks when it drips in the snow.
