Hi folks, new hear obviously. I have lurked around a bit in the last few months, decided to join as this is clearly a more active forum for Ford/New Holland, and that is what I am working on the most these days. I look forward to gaining knowledge of my equipment, and perhaps my experiences with this machine can help others.
Anyway, what brings me here right now is trying to figure out a small(I hope) hydraulic leak. I have recently been through some trial and error working on adding hydraulics for a backhoe, and today I was remounting my snow plow and discovered a drip that concerns me. There are a few things under the tractor that look like the end of a cotter pin, and the one in this pic has a hydraulic oil drip fast enough to concern me. Can someone tell me what the purpose of this thing is? And why oil would be coming out of it? I checked and I was 2 quarts low, and I had checked last weekend. This could be a leak, but it more likely ended up in my backhoe...
Thanks in advance!
