I have a cub 125, a 1968 model, that has been leaking steadily from the bottom fitting on the suction tube. This is the original suction tube (the one that goes up and over the top of the hydro unit and loops back to the other fitting). I have split the tractor and removed the tube, inspected it, found no visible cracks or any obvious reasons for the leak. I wrapped the fittings with teflon tape and replaced it, tightened the connections and it still leaks.
It leaks while the tractor is sitting and I can only assume it gets worse when the tractor tuns and the oil gets hot. Is this a common problem? Do I replace the tube? Or do I just live with the leak? Has anyone else had this problem?
Thanks!
