As I said in post #10 - I was wrong you were right - it is not the PTO clutch relief valve. However it is the hydraulic relief valve from the WSM for the BX1880.

I'm batting 0 - 2 today. Sometimes my head is so far up I have to use a borescope to find it and for that I humbly apologize. So the first picture in the original post was correct (the PTO clutch relief valve)? Pesky RTV, glad you found it though.

That is NOT from a BX1800 but it is not the PTO relief valve, my bad. Download the WSM and search. You have to take off the filter to see the PTO relief valve.

Seems unlikely but maybe thermal stress with a little help from jarring when you dumped? You didn't say if you went from a heated garage to outside or if you had a cab heater pointing at the window heating it unevenly. Could have been a nick or flaw in the window when installed also. You'll...

And I was proud when I hit 300 hrs. Great job keep it running all these years! 🥳

Gotta love chasing down electronic problems! :cautious: Glad you got it running again though!

If you look at the diagram in the post from Seane1987 you have to go past Glow to get to Start, so no. Kind of like Monopoly. :p

P.S. - no problems with clearance in 3 years, but again, they are turf tires.

Pushing heavy snow or plowing on slick surfaces chains are a must for my BX. I've plowed and used the bucket a couple of time so far this year without chains but the snow has been fairly fluffy. The time will come when they have to go on. I use the ladder 2-link heavy duty without v-bars for my...

Do not push the center all the way through. When installing you push the center in and it spreads the tongs (for lack of a better term) to lock it into place. To remove pry the center back out and it should release the tongs so you can just pull the thing out. A very small flat screw driver...

Are you talking about retainer clips like these? If so you'll likely need a kit to replace the ones that don't come out easily. Just search Amazon - body panel clips, retainer clips, etc. If not take a picture and post it.

Likely a true statement. I think a thief would prefer to use any of the three man-doors on my garage, break a window and open the door. Either way if they want in they're getting in.

That was the intent. ;) Gets people to read posts they wouldn't otherwise, and as you say, have some fun with it.

That is awesome! Great pictures. I don't think they'd like the weather we're getting here currently.
