L1500 oil/fuel/hydro system.

[royboy42]

I'm going out on limb here.

The white screw on filter on the left is the fuel filter.

Is the horizontal metal cylinder in the bottom right of the picture the oil filter? Is that just a protective cover for what i think is the oil filter?

The bolt with the little dab of orange on it's head just in front of the clutch pedal.

Is that the check level hole for the hydro fluid?

Is there a filter or screen for the hydro system? If so, where would it be?

I'm getting some squaking/squaling outta what sounds like the pump area when i go to raise an implement. and it's jumpy at times/not very smooth.


Thanks

Just wondering where you get oil filters for the L1500 oil bath type, And if there is a cross reference to a fram or wix type filter. Thanks

Osut362 is correct. I found one at the local napa store. close to 25 dollars a piece.

I'm looking into buying the block for a L175 and then i'd be able to use the spin on 3 dollar filters.

After a couple of oil changes the conversion would pay for it's self.
