New owner of L175

[Tolbertjdt]

Howdy. I'm the proud owner of a L175 tractor. I have found out it is a "gray" version and that adds some fun to it. I did a dumb thing and pressured washed it and now I seem to have a oil leak behind the fan. I have replaced the gasket on the oil tank cause I thought maybe that was where it was leaking. Th guy I got it from said maybe the front seal was blown. It's not leaking from the head gasket. Any idea of where it could be coming from? And where to get seals for it. Thanks for any info you can give me.

Welcome to OTT.

The L175 is not a Grey market tractor. It is the American cousin of the L1500 which is a grey market. You can go to any Kubota supplier and get parts for a L175. But not so much for a L1500. When purchasing parts for the L1500 you have to tell them it is a L175 if you want them to sell the parts to you.

Where is Ragley close to? I am in Slidell and Loranger, LA.

Sorry I can't help with the oil leak.
