I was wondering what the latest information was on the oil cooler hose issue.
I had my first one to split yesterday.
The TC33D is 7 years old.
The price of the 5 inch L shaped formed hose is $15 each.
I had read that there was a kit available to replace these hoses?
I did buy 2 new hoses to get my tractor running again.
The new hose seems to be a little tougher than the one I removed.
That may be because of the age of the original hose?
If I would have had more time I believe I could have come up with a better and less expensive repair.
I thought about using a piece of curved conduit and 2 short straight heavy hose.
I had some heavy heater hose in 5/8 inch.
How much pressure is on this hose?
I read where someone made a big loop to avoid using the L hose?
Has anyone fixed the problem another way?
