transaxle oil

[gobbles4]

If i overfill my transaxle oil will it throw out the excess when i mow? When i finish mowing there is some oil leak on the cement floor where the mower was parked when i mow the next time.

Yes as oil expands when heated.

Not knowing what transmission you have, I have a K66 the reservoir on it at room temperature is 3rd or 4th line from the bottom, less than 1/2 bottle.
