After pulling my water pump on my L245DT, I noticed what appears to be a sump under the main shaft pulley. I thought it was only filled with coolant from leaking water pump, but it is also filled with a sludge as well. Could be oil, hydraulic fluid (I'm also replacing 3 hyd. hoses). Is there supposed to be a drain for this sump? If so, where? I cannot find it! and if no drain, any suggestions how to clean it out. The pulley position makes it difficult to get any kind of scoop down in there.
As always I really appreciate your suggestions.
