Near the rear of my tractor, where the drive shaft goes to front axle, there is around plastic cap or seal. It fell out while parked in the shop and all my fluid ran out. What could cause this? How much fluid goes in and what holds this cap in place? Should there be some sort of o-ring washer.

The rubber cap probably shrank a little over time for whatever reason, heat, age, reaction to oil, etc. It loosened and fell out. You can clean the surfaces, thoroughly removing all traces of oil. Coat the edge of the seal with RTV silicone sealant and reinstall. You might consider a new rubber cap which I can provide. Call me at 800-609-5110. The transmission takes 3.17 gallons of gear oil. If you have a FEL installed substitute Universal Tractor Fluid for gear oil. Fill till oil flows out the level plug on right side of transmission just behind the differential lock pedal.
