Yes, the lines are from the loader. I have moved the joystick in every direction possible to relieve pressure, now comes the scary part, removing the lines and hoping nothing bad happens. Thanks

I have just emptied my b1700hst transmission oil, spin-on filter and cleaned the transmission filter screen on the tractor. My question is that I now have no transmission/hydraulic oil left in the unit, can I remove and repair leaky hoses without worrying about it shooting oil everywhere or...

Wondering if anyone could shed some light on this for me. My HST b1700 clutch is chattering when I release the clutch pedal, but when I push the clutch pedal in the noise is gone. So I am wondering with 1000 hours on it what gives? Is the throwout bearing serviceable? I looked on the side of the...

I linked a picture of the hub assembly for my b1700hsd. I'll jack up the tractor tomorrow and see how chewed up the hub is and the "pinch" bolt. From what I saw today, some hack just put in the bolt and a washer instead of the cotter, the washer is bent inwards, almost in half. Yep , those are...

Sorry about the delay, irene put a damper on any work around the yard. I checked the hubs and they are fine, it seems the locating pin is no longer on either hub, since I couldn't find the pin. The "pinch" bolt is tight on both sides, so I think a trip to the hardware store will fix the issue...

Well as the title states, I was moving some fill around the back yard today and found that my right rear tire was wobbling on the axle. After jumping off the tractor and to my horror, I found the wheel sliding up and down the axle. The bolts are tight, but is my rear hub gone, or is a rear axle...

The only thing I could think of was that it wasn't creating a vacuum?? The tank still had gas in it so gravity forces the gas into the fuel bowl..hmmm. ALl I know is that it is humming along nicely. Does anyone know where the suction filter is on this b1700hst? I see the hydro filter, but the...

Finally got it up and running correctly..I replaced the return lines from the injector pump back to the tank and its been running great, no hiccups, no dying down/up a hill. When I pulled the return lines out, they had all kinds of blue junk in the fuel tank side( mechanic buddy said it is...

I replaced the fuel filter today and it runs again, but still stalls on hills for some reason, it seems like the $3.20 filter solved it somewhat. I don't have a compressor, but a fuel line is a lot cheaper to buy also. On the b1700, do I have to bleed the fuel injector pump and loosen the air...

The tractor had a 1/2 full tank when this started to occur. I drained the fuel tank again today, checked to see if anything was hanging out inside the tank and it had no bugs, twigs, nuts or anything that would cuase it to block I proceeded to refuel it with diesel fuel, bled the lines and it...

Since the tank is a black plastic, any easy way of seeing what else is lurking in the tank. I tried with my work light but it's not strong enough. A kubota mechanic buddy of mine mentioned a air/vapor lock which is causing the bowl to drain then the engine is sucking in air instead of gas, so...

I'll try bleeding the injectors tomorrow to see if this resolves the issue along with replacing the fuel/air filters too. I'll go to the local auto parts store and replace the fuel line from the tank to the bowl to rule out that too. Thanks for the help, it's appreciated!

The problem still remains, sediment bowl is full, it empties out, then the drop in rpm's(500rpm's) sounds looks like it is gonna stall, after 10sec it kicks back up to 1700-1800rpm's then sputters down again, loosening gas cap has no effect.

Newcomer here to these boards looking for some advice/assistance. I just purchased a new to me b1700 hst tractor a couple of weeks ago w/1060hrs on it. The problem that has started occuring last Saturday is the tractor is starving for fuel I am thinking. When I have her shutdown the fuel bowl...
