    D17 power steering - governor driven pump

    Drove it around the barn yard for a spell, long enough to get up to operating temperature then parked it. Significant fluid movement was observed with filler cap removed at idle, as well as at increased engine speed. Went ahead and dropped the fluid to remove the water contamination and gave a...

    D17 power steering - governor driven pump

    On the agenda for today is to do so, I was requesting next steps on the basis of the below as I won't be online while at the barn and don't expect yourself or others would be waiting with anticipation to reply immediately. Regardless, I'm putting the time in over there this afternoon and will...

    D17 power steering - governor driven pump

    Going to be back out at the barn tomorrow and will do some diagnosis on this. Assuming pump moves fluid, what would be next most likely cause or diagnostic step?

    Back blade question - Kubota b6100

    I'll add that I've got a home built box blade and an old ford 6' straight blade. Heavy moving dirt work the box blade is superior. General maintenance the straight blade is better, including pulling ditches back open and crowning a road since it can be angled L-R.

    Back blade question - Kubota b6100

    Are they the best implement for grading a road....no. Are they the worst....no. Will they do the job with some adjusting and learning curve....yes in most cases. Much like debates about the best oil type (conventional vs synthetic) everyone has an opinion.

    D17 power steering - governor driven pump

    I'll check fluid flow before disassembly as advised and report back. We head out of town today and won't have time to do anything with this project for a few weeks. It has some leaks that need to be addressed and this will serve as motivation to deal with those as well. Haven't gotten to...

    D17 power steering - governor driven pump

    I went over and moved it to the barn yesterday afternoon. Turns right with some resistance and no power assist returning to center or left. From looking at service manual and parts diagram, I'm expecting to disassemble the gearbox to at least inspect and clean everything.

    D17 power steering - governor driven pump

    Evening all, having power steering woes with my D17 with single front wheel. I'll preface this with I've not experienced the issue and working on vague secondhand information and a service manual. Symptoms: Started with assist on left turns and loss of assist on right turns (including return to...

    D17 oil types - trans/final drive/etc.

    Late follow up but ended up using the universal trans/hydro oil back in late summer 2024 for everything except engine oil and the power steering. Neglected power steering and its now a problem. Dropping that into a thread of its own.

    D17 Coolant in oil

    Yep. Best I could manage is a wooden shed, once the engine is pulled. It is just getting it pulled that would be the main challenge.

    D17 Coolant in oil

    Part of my issue on pulling the engine is that I'm working in a gravel driveway or barn. Neither of which have an anchor for a hoist to pull it. Yes, there are other methods but I'm not trying to build (or buy) a gantry set up.

    D17 Coolant in oil

    Thanks, suppose it's time I invested in a cooling system presure tester. Have several vehicle projects it will be useful on coming up as well. Definitely want to pin it down before tearing anything apart. Don't want to back up and fire the parts cannon needlessly. Assuming it is the sleeves...

    D17 Coolant in oil

    Gas D17. Changed the oil last weekend after discovering water contamination in the engine oil. First thought was condensation but found some coolant upon pulling the drain plug. Looking into the possible repairs to address and debating the direction to go with diagnosis and repair. I'm looking...

    TO35 tach cable routing?

    I pulled the steering gear off to replace bearings, seals, etc. and am reinstalling everything but hit a snag. The only component I've got a question on is the tach cable routing. Can any of you shed some light on the routing of the tach cable in the vicinity of the air filter and battery tray...
