After pulling my water pump on my L245DT, I noticed what appears to be a sump under the main shaft pulley. I thought it was only filled with coolant from leaking water pump, but it is also filled with a sludge as well. Could be oil, hydraulic fluid (I'm also replacing 3 hyd. hoses). Is there...

Hi Guys, My L245 water pump died on me and doesn't want to come off the engine. I thought it was mounted with bolts (parts list calls them bolts) but they seem to be studs. I removed the four nuts but the pump won't budge. Are these in fact studs? and are they at all removable? I would really...

Hi guys, Just bought a L245DT and found that my right rear tire has a slow leak. Tires were never ballasted and I think are still tubeless. What is the best easy fix for this condition. I also expect to have many other questions for members as this is my first tractor. Thanks for your help. Chuck
