So I went to change the oil and the filter wouldn't come off. I thought could the threads run backwards or something crazy? Well the tin was bent and jammed up into the filter. I could have *$!&! someone with my bare hands. So I straightened out the tin and got the filter off. It weighed about a 100 lb.s. Tells me they gave up on changing it.
Oil was very dirty but no metal specs. I replaced with genuine Kohler straight 30. Before I heated her up for the oil change I wiped down the hydraulic lines etc. to see where the leaks were.
I believe the hydraulic pump is leaking where the shaft comes out to attach to Love Joy. Oil blasts all over and I can't really use the FEL until I get this squared away. Question is this a common weak point?
So do I send the pump out for a rebuild or can I do it myself? Page 73B of parts manual has a specific breakdown of the pump.
Does anyone know who made this pump?
I tried to get the Case Air Filter housing no luck.
Boomer set me up with his friend and I have a filter housing ordered from him. Its not the exact Case setup but with Boomer's guidance it will work. Boomer is extremely knowledgeable with regards to the Onans and very helpful. A real decent guy.
She's a little smokey but I don't think awful. It seems to clear up and I think the FEL liked the oil change.
Noticed (duh) I have no plastic fan because the entire PTO is gone but the CCKA has fins. Is this acceptable for hydraulic cooling by itself?
