leaking vlave control ym200bd

PrivetFarmer · Mar 12, 2006

Has anyone had this problem? It leaks hyd. fluid out of the valve control oil seal. I have replaced the oil seal but I think there is too much pressure behind it. I replaced the o'ring on the spool and that seemed to help for a while. I have not seen any similiar posts on this or any other forum but i can't believe I am the only one who has experienced it.
TIA,
Jim

Jim,

When you say valve control...are you talking about a controller on your FEL? Or the valve for implement lock? Not sure which, or what is giving you trouble.

The valve control assembly which is under the seat and controls the 3 pt. It leaks like a sieve from the oil seal.
Thanks,
Jim

I've only had a problem once. I took the valve assembly apart, cleaned with steel wool as it had surface rust from condensation. Reassembled with new O ring and didn't have any other problems.

You might want to check to be sure your vent is clear. Bees have a habit of nesting and closing off that vent.
