Ok, here we go... Ran the tractor with my 5' cutter for several hours today watching the newly installed gauge the whole time. At idle, after hot, runs about 20+psi, with cutter running at 540RPM, gauge runs about 38+PSI. Sounds really good and no hiccups. Think shes OK. Thanks for all the...

OK guys, New pump installed and ran last night. Primed system prior to starting and shes sounds really good. When installing the oil pump, I did completely coat it thickly in bearing grease, just to help it seat in and help create initial vacuum. Doing this, I know will be thickening my...

case seems good, had a buddy thats a machinist check it last night. Parts should be here today, fingers crossed shes OK... Just spent $14K on this thing, trying to minimize my spend any further.

found a download of the engine manual and going by that. The PO told me he had replaced the seal. No I didnt open engine up. Just checked play at the crank snout. Putting in the pump and new parts and hoping for the best... If not, I'll buy a new motor or have this one rebuilt.

Winner, winner, chicken dinner... Oil pump and oil pump rear case for the win. Looks as if the when the PO replaced the seal in front of the oil pump, he placed the chamfered collar on backwards, flat side facing the o-ring and possibly put increased pressure on the oil pump assembly by doing...

Bought this one> https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07ZH9P8QH/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 Seems to be decent quality. Thanks for the tip on the flow...

Went through the drainplugs on the bottom. Got a real good look at it and looks to be in place. One more thing I'd like to do before pulling the front gear case off to check the pump is to place a suction pump at either the filter or the pressure switch and see if I can draw oil up from the...

I realize that help on a 10yr old machine was questionable, but when most look at buying equipment, don't most people look at the hours first. I always have and this machine has less than 200hrs on it. Been in sales/engineering for 20+yrs and we always stand behind our products, even some out...

Ordered a boroscope, should be here today and will check pickup tube. Talked to many dealerships yesterday and most just wanted to split the tractor to check the pickup tube. Seems like a lot just to do that. Can scope in 5 minutes, but most claimed that didn't have a scope. Also talked with...

Fayetteville GA is where I'm at.

Is it possible that within 196hrs that the splines wore off the oil pump? Like to know why if so

Thanks! Zero pressure or flow. Pulled the oil filter back off and no oil in it whatsoever after running for 2 seconds and cranking a little.. BTW, how can I crank to prime the oil without starting. No kill switch on this thing that I know of

Boroscope would be great if I had one that would flex in the but I dont...

Pickup could have fallen off. Hope not as it looks like a big job to remove the pan.

Thanks all! It had a Kubota filter on it and that's what I put back on it new. The noise just was a slight rattle, no grinding yet. Did pull the filter back off after running and no oil in filter which tells me it should either be the oil pump or the pickup in the sump... Sound about right...

Looks as if the gear case should pull straight off to access the pump. That correct? Also, is there a oil pressure relief valve somewhere? Can't locate one...

Tried to find the wsm with no luck so far. Not listed on this site as I've seen... Anyone have a link to a download?

HI, Great site. I have searched but found nothing to help so far. I bought a like new 2010 B3300SU, 175hrs. Have had it two weeks and put 20hrs on it bushhogging and moving dirt. Started this morning and was fine, but went to move back and oil light came on. Immediately shut it off and...
