Anyone else have HST pump problems?

Hi I have a B7200 HST that is leaking badly from the side of the HST pump. It is leaking on the RT hand side from the shaft that attaches to the foot pedal. Problem is the dealers have no idea what I am talking about. I can see the leak and where its comming from. I want to get it fixed but I cant seem to get an estimate, one dealer told me I would have to come in and show him the spot on his computer parts breakdown. Another told me he hadnt ever heard of this type of leak. This scares me that 2 dealers appear to be clueless on whats leaking on my tractor. Anyone else ever had to have the HST pump repaired? If so was it expensive as I cant get much of an anwser from the dealers Thanks Jason

Jason,

It could be leaking at the swashplate trunnion from what you are describing - I think there is a an oring on the case at that point.

Go to a dealer that knows what they are talking about - likely you dealt with the parts people and they know parts but you should speak with the service manager. If he has any Kubota experience, he should be able to assist you.

Good luck!
