I posted a few days ago that my BX23 is leaking hydraulic fluid around the rear somewhere. I mowed last night and had to run nearly WOT for about 3 hours to get the grass cut and bagged, it really looks good. I would guess that I lost about a teaspoon of hydraulic fluid in the process. Needless to say I was very upset seeing hydraulic fluid all over the back of the tractor.
I took the opportunity to look for a where the leak was eminating and it appears to be coming from directly under the seat. If you look under the seat you will see what looks like a red cap sitting on a washer. I always thought that this was an operator presence switch, but it is obviuosly not, silly me.
Does anyone know what this is? Might this be a vent of some type? Could my hydro fluid be a little overfull and pushing itself out of this?
