There is hydraulic fluid leaking from the top of at least one of the valve assemblies on my BH90. Even without operating the BH the harder I work the tractor the greater the fluid leaks. I had a problem a while ago with one of the stabilizer valves. I had a local tractor mechanic take it apart to find out that one of the o-rings was twisted up. That one o-ring cost $30.00 (yikes)

Has anyone had this problem yet? I'm not much of a mechanic but I would like to try to fix it myself. Any advise on how to take the valve apart would be a great help.

Thanks alot

hey man I have the same hoe and the same problem, I looked at the explodedview and it looks like a simple oring. It doesnt leak too bad, but when I do tear it down, I will just go to the local hardware store and get a regular oring. the hoe will never know the difference and it will cost about .10
Dont get hung up on some OEM oring. An oring is an o ring:)
