Does the WSM actually tell you how to perform repairs? I couldn’t find anything in the digital version with step by step instructions. I believe I have a leak in my oil cooler line and I’m not that mechanically inclined.

Generally, the WSM tells how to disassemble and reassemble a system, not an individual part. How to remove, overhaul and replace the engine, not how to replace just the water pump. Kubota assumes some mechanic experience.

But don't despair, OTT is here. Repairing that line should be fairly easy if it's accessible.
Is it shown on this diagram?

I believe it shows the one but it looks a little different. I’ll have to look next time I’m up at the shop.

This is the correct diagram. I’m wondering how hard of a fix this is going to be?

I can't help much. Look around page 7-S12 in the WSM. Start by disconnecting and possibly removing the battery. Probably requires removing the hood and right side panel. Once you remove the battery, you should be able to locate the leak.

Make sure you don't get an electrical surge to the ECM.
