I didn't have any issues when I did mine, but that was 2 years ago. I could be making a mistake by I've decided I'm not gong to change it every year when I only put 60 hours a year on the tractor.Going to be changing out the hydraulic fluid & filter sometime soon. Keep reading about the suction filter issues with cross threading. Any tips or tricks anyone can pass along before I start? Thanks in advance.
Anyway, the suction filter turned out by hand after loosening it up and then turned in all the way by hand and just needed to tighten in up.
Very curious about the cause. I tried to do a search to find other references but didn't have much luck. The way the threads are only damaged at the one end makes me wonder if the housing isn't tapped properly.
