Default Cork gasket leaking

Hello,

I recently bought a 1650 and it appears to have the gasket leaking between the hydro and transaxle. Can I remove the pump and replace gasket without removing the transaxle?

Yes but it will be far easier to just remove the whole rearend to do it.

Roll the transaxle out the back and sit it on the rear cover and you will not loose but a cup full of oil.
That said, it is also a good time to change the hyd oil/filter, if it has not been done in a while.
Although those cork gaskets are notorious for leaking,
make sure it is indeed the gasket and not the release valves on top, or the expansion plug.
A good cleaning and final spraying off with carb cleaner or your preferred cleaner, then dusting the area with baby power will reveal the leak from it's true source.
---Do this before removing anything.

On the front side of the diff just below the cork gasket, you can see it on the parts breakdown,about 2" in diameter.
Prolly can't see it now because of all the crud.

Thanks! Yeah I found it after watching a couple videos. I am going to check it tomorrow when I get to the farm but Im pretty sure its leaking from the cork gasket because I saw it running out. I'm suppose to get the cork gasket tomorrow. Maybe I will get a chance to tear it down this weekend. I checked the relief valves first thing when I found the mountain of crud when I removed the tunnel cover and they where not leaking. Any other seals I need to look at on an internal brake machine while I got it down that far?

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
