Fuel filter cap replacement

[chsdiyer]

I cracked the clear fuel filter cap today on my XG3025. I found a replacement filter local but was wondering if anyone knew where I might have luck finding a replacement cap. Is that something I should be able to find at an auto parts store? Or there is a Kubota, Massey, and John Deere dealers in town, is there a compatible replacement they may have. Or is it something where it'd be easier to just replace the whole assembly? The part number I found online is...

Order through the LS dealer? They may have one in stock. Is that an LS part #?
If it is, just put "MT" in front of the number, that would become a New Holland part number. (The XG3025 is the same as the NH Workmaster 25) that will increase your availability at dealers.

Hope you can easily find one.

Awesome, thanks. That is an LS number. I think there is a new holland dealer around here, but i'm not sure they sell smaller tractors, it's more for large equipment. I'll still give them a try. Wasn't sure if there was anything special about they LS assembly that I couldn't just buy whatever JD or the other brands put on their tractor and replace the whole thing. I would have thought at some level a lot of these parts are common/shared.

40224977 is the LS number add MT and it becomes the NH number MT40224977
The second number 31A6200312 is the part that LS buys from a supplier and then give it their own number. IN this case it is FUEL FILTER CUP fits Farmtrac, LS, Montana, Mahindra, Caterpillar, Mitsubishi and is at least $10 cheaper than the LS or NH number.

I ended up getting the filter cap from the dealer a couple of hours away. It was the LS branded one and only $25, but the shipping was about the same Got it put back on and back running again. except for my new problem of running the PTO switch without being on the seat
