Oil & Fuel YM2500 Pushing Coolant Out the Radiator

Well, I just couldn’t resist.

Very glad I made the decision to paint the muffler a more glossy black!

Here’s a couple pictures of the Seymour MatchMaker FP-2 Tractor Implement Red that I used to touch-up the paint on the tractor. It was sent to me from Fredricks Equipment.
I have a little more to do today with the red.

I tried to stop a leak with RTV Silicone on the side of the fuel tank, but was unsuccessful.

I emailed Danny at Fredricks and he is sending me a new fuel tank and a new fuel cap with gauge.
I also requested a can of White spray paint so I can touch-up the paint on the rims.

Fredricks Equipment are good people to deal with and they truly do stand behind what they sell!

I used a piece of vacume hose the smaller return line fit into. I was able to keep the Org. tank. I had to do something. Major leak Esp. close to or a full tank of fuel.

I like keeping things as original as possible. I don’t know why, but that’s how I am. Glad you were able to keep the original tank.
Is that your air filter housing sitting on top of the engine? Never seen a setup like that.

Mentioned it before but both Yanmars came from a Fredrick's supplied dealer. The first one is the Ym2000 And it is org. Complete! Looked like It just rolled off a boat!! INKY.. Then a Refurb Ym2500. I knew his location and what he sold. Atl. motor speedway back then. Just went some Grn. new deal I think there calling it now?.... Not a Deere.

Here is a picture of the new tank with a hose barb “tit” for the fuel return line to go “on.” The tank that’s on there now has a “hole” for the fuel return line to go “in.”
It’s a major difference.

Here is a picture of the White paint from Fredricks. It’s what they use on the Yanmar tractor rims.

As for red, Hoye and Fredricks have mentioned Massey Ferguson red is very close. It can be used for touch up. It is one pantone shade brighter.

There is another red one pantone darker and should match Yanmar red. Troy Bilt red.
