This thread echoes my thoughts when I bought my 2015 4Runner.

Winner! You need to scoop the lever up as you move it to the left. Dont know why... it's just what works. Once you get the trick you'll open the hood no problem.

I checked mine and while I have no blockage I can see how there would be an issue. The caps are injection molded from two opposite sides. I had a small amount of die flash where the cap nipple goes into the overflow hose. Not too difficult to envision some die flash clogging the nipple passage.

I wouldn't trust anything skeets says because he's from southwestern PA: historically untrustworthy people. Your D902 engine has metal standoffs that impinge the frame under extreme load. I can get the engine to slap the frame when engaging the belly mower at an idle. Placing the chassis on a...

Welding anything on to an input shaft risks scorching the oil seal. Then, what happens if you need to dismantle it down the road? Bad idea.

Oregon G6. I use them on my 60" deck with the mulching baffles. I've read they work great with the discharge chute open as well. However, if'n yinz grass is laying flat then nothing is gonna fix that except sildenafil.

Owners manual and shop manual list axle caps.

Enough bickering. I'm buying Amelie products as of now because of this thread. If that doesnt produce results then I'll buy Swepco.

Are there any tribologists in the house? I need someone to explain hydrodynamic wedge theory because my tiny rodent brain cant wrangle it.

I have a basic answer: my pappy has a 1974 John Deere 140 H1 with a Sunstrand hydrostatic transmission. No auxiliary reduction unit like Kubota has. We change the filter once a year and have never changed the fluid (runs on type F automatic trans fluid). That tractor has 1550 hours of grass...

That isn't the actual checklist. I have one as a .txt file: Is the tractor/implement orange? Check one. Yes___ No___ If yes, deliver to customer address. If no, deliver to nearest John Deere facility.

!! I call my BX23S "the wee beastie".

Torque is an expression of rotating force. Horsepower is an expression of work accomplished per unit time. Both need considered when matching an engine to a particular load.

New York can suck it. If'n I find gold on dirt I paid for then said gold is going to my favorite charity: me.

hagrid is cornfused...

Perhaps? Mine had zero hours when delivered. To me, zero hours is brand new. 2 hours at purchase is lightly used.

Um... 2 hours on the clock? I think you were sold a demo.

Plenty of that and JD construction yellow laying about.

If your transmission or charge pump started sucking air you'd know it unless you're deaf.

I've seen old CAT engines with way more action from the slobber tube still make heavy power. I'd run your tractor under load and use those observations to determine the need for further internal investigation.
