    90's model Kubota B20 FEL and 3pnt stopped working suddenly.

    Just an update... The 3-point is running off of the rear pump, which explains why it still works. The front pump is only running the FEL. Pulled that pump today and the splines on the shaft are stripped, which is why it will apparently provide some flow, but nothing under load. So now have...

    Roger that. Thank you for the input. I'll disassemble tomorrow and will report back after.

    90's model Kubota B20 FEL and 3pnt stopped working suddenly.

    Correct that the 3-point is working; tested this morning with about 380# on it. RPM for hose test was right at 2k earlier. Just repeated the test at 1800 RPM and filled about 6oz of fluid in a 60 second period. So about an ounce every 10 seconds is what is is putting out.

    90's model Kubota B20 FEL and 3pnt stopped working suddenly.

    Good morning. I ran the test as you suggested. The hose going to the base does have flow when performing step 1, but as if I simply cracked a water spigot on just enough to get a steady small stream, just beyond dripping. Moving to step 2 made no difference. Edited to add... Also step back...

    90's model Kubota B20 FEL and 3pnt stopped working suddenly.

    Haven't tested the 3-point under a real load, just a 225# guy standing on it and it moves up/down. Only quick disconnect is the one intended to go to the backhoe, but it is plugged into it's port where it belongs without the BH. You can remove it while the engine is running and even depress...

    90's model Kubota B20 FEL and 3pnt stopped working suddenly.

    Correct that I can clearly watch the pistons all move in/out 1/4-1/2" range at the control. Also correct that the scoop/dump exhibit the same symptoms.

    90's model Kubota B20 FEL and 3pnt stopped working suddenly.

    I purchased this tractor used some years back and it unfortunately didn't have the backhoe. If I hold the control stick in the position to lift the FEL, then it will creep, barely, up. I can see the linkage at the controller and can see the stick push down on the corresponding pistons and they...

    90's model Kubota B20 FEL and 3pnt stopped working suddenly.

    I have tried the 3-point down and still no FEL operation. However, you might be on to something with the engine oil. Though my hydraulic fluid is still in the typical operation range, my engine oil is up on the dipstick. So it would seem that perhaps the front end pump has a failed internal...

    90's model Kubota B20 FEL and 3pnt stopped working suddenly.

    Thank you Dan for giving this a shot with me. Yes, the outlet block to the left of your right foot near the brake. Has a nut that I have never touched in all the years I've owned this tractor, but I read that if your foot bumps it this particular nut that is easy to turn with fingers, then it...

    90's model Kubota B20 FEL and 3pnt stopped working suddenly.

    First post here, so I appreciate any help. I've searched/read lots of posts (lots of Googling/YoutTube as well), but haven't found any that solved my issue over the last few days. Was running my B20 FEL (don't know the FEL model number) pulling an old fence post as I have many many times...
