Picked up a C-121 last winter, just doing maintenance on her today. Tranny fluid looks like its real old!!

That is not really that bad Mike.  I would do a good flush with diesel and maybe 2 flushes...depending on what come out.  Shine a light down the shift hole and see what that looks like.  Make sure to run the horse through the gears when flushing...about 20 minutes on blocks should do it.

Pea soup anyone?

I pulled the top plug on my 701. Black gear oil came out. Pulled the drain plug and nothing came out!  Ran a wire up in and it started oozzing out. Flushing in progress as well as a 520 re-wire.

Like Steve said ...doesn't look terrible.   I've drained Brown pudding from a few of the many I've drained....

Could have been worse Sparkeye and come out in clumps...I like Dino's idea
