I was crawling around under my L2501 today and found a few more zerk fittings. While greasing I came across this big nut with (not sure what to call it) a movable pin. Looks like some kind of vent maybe, but I'm not sure. Any ideas. Thanks

Sounds like he is describing the clutch housing water drain.

I had three pictures uploaded, but they didn't load up. So I tried to edit, and it won't let me drag and drop. Gonna try again. It still won't. Never had any problems with any other pictures before

Definitely the clutch housing drain. Push the pin up, if water spits out, remove the nut to drain the housing.

Thanks, I did push it up, nothing came out.

It's basically an "upside down" breather - drain. RJ nailed it.

Of course you did!! :laughing:

I think we've all been there: "Hmm, I wonder what this button does? I don't know. I'm just going to push it and see what happens."

LOL... how true.
I guess my use doesn't lend to getting water in the housing, as 15+ years of button pushing never resulted in water coming out.
I suspect driving through streams etc, is another matter.
