Trying to find the p/n for the short hose that connects the top tube coming off the hyd. reservior to the "T" section in the return line. Looking in the parts book, the schematic is not the same as my tractor. Appears to be showing a later 45 and 46 models. Mine is an early one and the tube comes out the top of the reservoir and bends 90 degrees and runs toward the right side of the tractor.
The problem I'm having is the tube, which is 3/4" o.d.until it gets to the last 3-4 inches, bulges out to a larger diameter. This larger section has a small orface in the end it. I tried to get a section of 3/4 ID hyd hose to work over the end but no luck, the hose split. The hose would need to be slightly larger to go over it. I am not sure if the bulged out section is stock or someone added it. I could easily cut that secton out and just use a longer hose. I'm not sure if that will cause any problems by not having the orface. Does anyone know if removing that orface section would hurt anything?
