2004 Kubota BX23
I have an '04 Kubota BX23 and I started noticing a small drip of hydraulic fluid coming from the drain plug. I ordered both a new plug and gasket (actually a washer I guess). Installed them just fine. Snugged them up but did NOT overtighten them. I continued to notice the small drip form on the drain plug. So I put some Teflon tape on the drain plug and reinstalled it. Everything felt just fine. Yet it continues to drip. It is a very, very slow drip. And the drain plug is the lowest point on the pan. I'm wondering if it could be coming from somewhere other than the plug itself?!?! Anyone else had this type of issue? It's just enough to be annoying and piss you off, you know the type issue. Any help would be appreciated!
