New Guy Question

Okay, I just got my Kubota L4400 HST (30 hours) and I see a hose that I don't recognize hanging down just inside (toward the drivers seat) the fuel filter. It is a small hose maybe 1/4" inside diameter and doesn't look like it goes to anything. But, it probably does

eh? Any ideas?

Thanks
Paddle

Welcome to TBN
How about a picture? That would help. I have a L4400HST and I am not sure where you are talking about.

Congratulations on the Kubota. Could it be a crankcase breather/vent?

My Ford has a tube that drains a small catch basin around the fuel filler cap for overfuel/spills. Can't you trace it up?

Is it the California required ozone emissions tube?

Just yanking your chain. Welcome to TBN. Have fun with the new toy.

I think you got it.

The only other possibility I can think of is that my L4740 has a tube running down in that general area, a little further back, that drains condensation from the air conditioner. Don't know if you have a cab or not.

.
