    The power steering pump hard steel lines with rubber lines closer to the front of the machine . The 3p / loader pump there’s a 3/4” hose from the top of the pump to the loader valve. The suction lines from tank to pump are all steel, with o rings bolted to their respective hook ups( not the...

    Sorry for the late reply . As for the update . Only getting low pressures on the gauges. The 3 point hitch goes down , but won’t lift with 2-300 lbs on it. I have noticed some leaks which I’m working to mitigate . I don’t think it’s the pump but I can’t say for certain . My next guess would be...

    For whatever reason my draft link at the bottom can be seen dripping slow drips of hydraulic oil. Also I have this icon on my dash (unsure why ) . From the back , the switches allow me to lower and raise the 3 point hitch . Still no loader valve . Taking the timing to de-grease everything. It is...

    its a m100x. Its a cable controlled open center hydraulic system for a loader controls are mounted in the cab. the 3 point hitch is working. The valve is leaking a very small amount, i just havent degreased it to find where.

    Could it be possible that I have the centre valve that puts fluid into the ports located incorrectly ? . My pressure gauge is off the “p” port .

    The pressure gauge is showing 30-40 psi when the control valve is open . (Lift bucket) The open centre valve has a direct connection to 1 of 2 of the hydraulic pumps . Appreciate the responses . Hopefully I can narrow this down tonight .

    Strip spark plug

    I always find warming the motor up before a plug change helps. You can use a penetrant, make sure around the area is clean before you pull the plug . The biggest thing is do NOT over tighten then . Also check your gap. I personally wouldn’t use champion , but that’s a personal preference.

    it first started having issues with the FEL, slowly creeping down . Took it into the dealer because I was just flat out busy , (huge mistake). Seemed fine at first then eventually it stopped working all together . I pulled the valve apart to find some parts missing (heater plug) . So I got a re...

    good afternoon i have a kubota m100 that i am trying to fix. i have the valve rigged up with a pressure gauge but havent been able to get the pressure i want out of it. in fact theres not much for pressure at all, but upon cracking the hose from the pump there is hydraulic oil in the line...
