    Jetstar 3 Industrial Hydraulics

    I also bought 5 gallons of AW-32 hydraulic oil. When I drained the existing fluid from tractor. It was red, and the new fluid is just clearish regular hydraulic fluid color. I think I’m going to need to flush the system now because I don’t know what was in it before. I’ve read a few places I can...

    Jetstar 3 Industrial Hydraulics

    Do you guys know if these filters are serviceable? I’d think so being as heavy duty as it is. I removed it, and it doesn’t seem to come apart?

    Oil change

    Sorry for the delay guys. I only ran it for about 10-15 seconds without seeing oil pressure. After checking everything a few times, I started it the next day and it ran for about another 15 seconds then I heard the motor make a different noise then the oil pressure picked. I may have panicked...

    Oil change

    It’s the craziest thing. I don’t really know how it’s even possible. Maybe something broke loose and is clogging something? But the new oil should gravity drain down to the filter right? I have the spin on as well .

    Oil change

    I just changed the oil in my Jet star 3. First time changing it since I’ve owned it. I am extremely confused. Got it drained, replaced filter, and filled it back up. I started it, and noticed no oil pressure. I pulled the new filter and I don’t have any oil coming out, it I see oil on the...

    Oil Pressure issue Jet Star 3

    I got the test gauge today and tested this evening. It went up to about 25 psi when I started it thankfully. It still has the wrong oil filter and older dirty oil in it, so oil pressure should hopefully improve a little after I get that done. I do have a question about the oil change. Where the...

    Oil Pressure issue Jet Star 3

    I ordered an oil pressure test gauge kit. Figured it would give me the most accurate reading. I should have my new oil, filter, and oil pressure tester here on Monday. I appreciate the help with the filter part numbers.

    Oil Pressure issue Jet Star 3

    I also just noticed, the filter they had under the tractor for the motor oil is actually a Hydraulic fluid filter. (AGCO 70237000). Not sure if that would make a difference or not.

    Oil Pressure issue Jet Star 3

    Hello, I've got a Gas Moline Jet Star 3 Industrial. Bought about a month ago, and I want to start fixing minor things before I dig into the major repairs. The previous owner told me that the oil pressure gauge hasn't worked in years. I want to get that addressed first for some peace of mind. I...

    Looking for a mechanic

    I appreciate the info. I will buy a repair manual and probably just plan on teaching myself as I go with the help of guys on the forum. I was worried I may have bought something that I shouldn't have, but it seems like a well built tractor, and I haven't found too many like it. So, I am...
