I have a Kubota bx25d, with about 230 hours on the clock. Recently I noticed that hydraulic fluid is leaking from something around the backhoe valve block, and accumulating on the horizontal surface below it. It happens only when I am operating the backhoe, not if I am just driving the tractor or operating the loader. Of course, I suspected a loose hose fitting, so I tightened all of them. None were obviously loose, and the extra tightening did not solve the problem. Some of the hoses are wet, but even after drying them off, I can't isolate the culprit, or even be sure that it is just a loose connection. Could anyone give me some suggestions?
