International 175 track loader

[Logan gent]

I have a international 175 went to start it and nada happened after troubleshooting settled on starter being bad/ solenoid once got the starter out hydraulic fluid came pouring out so pretty sure the starter got flooded with oil. Oil level was at the bottom of the stater maybe 1-2 quarts came out when I pulled started out what should I do before it’s decided the torque converter needs to come out

MODLE # 175k3
serial # A19056

What kind of oil? engine or transmission?

That's the loader serial #, the serial # needed should be on the firewall under the dash.

The Bell housing on a 175 and others is wet do to normal leakage.  The flywheel when running picks up the oil, throws it into a small trough at a return hose which takes it back to the rear case.  It is possible it is over filling because of a converter problem but you generally will have trans/converter heating problems.  The starter needs to be a sealed starter.  S/n on a 175 should be on the left side of the seat.

It’s transmission oil

Tried to look on manuals for the tube can’t see it on the break downs was thinking maybe it is plugged or something

What you have going on may be completely normal but checking it out may be justified.  The drain back hose is on the lower right side of the bell housing and returns to the front of the transmission or the main case.  The fitting in the bell housing has the trough built onto it.  You'll have to remove the fitting to see the trough.  If the machine ever had a starter bendix failure the trash from that can collect in that fitting and restrict the flow.  Also, on top of the converter is a vent, early models, or it may be piped back to the rear case, later models.  Make sure it is venting.  Early 175's, which yours might be if it has the Drott loader frame, had a washable safety filter in the converter out circuit.  This is mounted inside the frame next to the engine on the left side.  This is where you would find aluminum trash if a converter failure occurs.  If your machine is running normal and converter temps are staying normal, I don't think any of this is pertinent.  Make sure the starter is sealed.    Dennis
