    Kubota B26 service manual needed

    Did mine and no more oil coming out the back. It was impossible to see the cracks in the elbow until I pulled it out.

    B26 - q about replacing the suction hose assembly

    Checked the air filter and it seems really clean, maybe it was changed by PO recently. I got the fuel filter, though I've since read in the service manual that the fuel filter can be cleaned with kerosene, so maybe this was me overly concerned, oh well, I got a new one anyway. I was planning to...

    B26 - q about replacing the suction hose assembly

    You were right, it was a waste of time. This model is just too long, doesn't fit. Other models seem to have a bigger rear so it won't fit at the back. @Smokeydog I'll swing by the dealer and get the hst and suction oil filters tomorrow. Not a big fan of doing work with oil in the winter...

    B26 - q about replacing the suction hose assembly

    The tractor is new to me, 1050 hours on it. I've had several small and bigger tractors, but none with HST. Have not seen on my previous tractors hydraulic oil going from clear honey like color to dark like this one is. Of course I will change the oil, but I'm just wondering if maybe it's never...

    B26 - q about replacing the suction hose assembly

    Picked up the parts and oil from the dealership couple a days ago. They attached an o-ring to my order said I'd need it. Who am I to argue, these guys deal with Kubotas day in and day out. Turns out there was an o-ring in the kit anyways. Oh well, better an extra one than a missing one...

    B26 - q about replacing the suction hose assembly

    Ordered the new suction hose assembly which means the one piece pipe needs to be replaced. My question to those who have done this is, when you get the long pipe out will a lot of hydraulic fluid pour? Is there a way to minimize the hydraulic fluid loss? Because I want to be prepared it...

    Kubota B26 service manual needed

    @Smokeydog saw that on youtube but could not figure out where the elbow is 🙈 Maybe this, but it doesn't look like in the youtube video. @Smokeydog thank you, I confirmed by looking at the parts diagram that's the elbow. Doesn't look broken to me but I'll look to get a new one anyway.

    Kubota B26 service manual needed

    I realize this is an older thread, but I just got myself a B26 a few days ago. My happiness was short lived, as yesterday I saw what seems to be hydraulic oil leaking from somewhere at the rear. Doesn't seem to leak all the time, but when the tractor is is used. Before I buy a copy of the WSM...
