I forgot to ask if you had checked and cleaned the suction strainer in the bottom of the case.

The specific oil for optimum performance is ISO AW 150 machine oil.
This is available in almost all popular oil brands.

I'm away from my 'puter right now so I don't have access to the specific oil info, but it was a AGMA rated 20w machine oil. I'll get specifics when I get back.
You will have to tap into the clutch hydraulic system to see what pressure you're getting. It should be between 30# and 50#. This pressure overcomes the spring engaging pressure of the planetary drive servos (there are two, one forward – one reverse). There is also a possibility that the accumulator has lost it's charge for some reason.
It sounds like one or both of your servos is not releasing the spring pressure. These work very similar to the steering clutches.

It's really easy to do either, but a new thread under this topic would be ok .
See the easy to follow instructions here.

UCCDOZER Welcome,
Please start a new thread and include the year of your dozer, and if it has the hydraulic accumulator or not.
Thanks
Btw, Hy-Tran oil does not have an AGMA rating, and is not recommended in your shuttle clutch for optimum performance. You should be using an oil of the correct viscosity that is recommended for geared friction drives, which is what you have. We'll touch on that later.

Missouri,
You have the same issue as Blue. If fuel is coming from the vent cap, the entire sump is full of diesel fuel. Drain it all out and refill with fresh oil. Check oil level daily. Shut off fuel at the tank after each use. Decide if you want to repair it or just live with it knowing it will eventually fail.

Just finished my last night shift and I feel like I just lost 75 lbs. WOW!
Just wish I looked like it.
