Good afternoon, folks.
I have a 2555 that developed a fuel leak yesterday after clearing some, apparently, 3000 year old muscadine grape vines. The leak appears to be coming from the water sensor on the bottom of the filter. This is now the second time a filter has been damaged by something popping up from under the tractor to hit it. The first was my hydraulic filter.
Does anyone have any recommendations for protecting or moving these filters? I thought about putting some plates under them, but the only solid place to mount the plates would be to the frame, and I’m not sure about drilling/tapping the frame or welding to it. So, I’m thinking moving them may be the best option, but I was wondering if anyone else had done it, and if so, where did you move them to?
Thanks!
