First time posting, been lurking for a while.

Looks like my breather valve (YS027) is leaking hydraulic fluid through the center orifice. Not the best angle sorry.

2 year old tractor with 120 hours on it. Searched but could not find anything to answer my question. This normal, to be expected? Thoughts are appreciated.

I had what looks to be a similar leak at around 10 hours or so. The cause of my leak was a semi-loose hydraulic hose fitting. After noticing the minor leak, I attempted tightening all the fitting but the leak persisted. I took it to the dealer and they fixed it at no cost.

Breather valve?
Are you saying it's leaking fluid out of here?

If it is that is not a breather that is a detent cap.
You'll need this kit to fix it.

And while your at it might as well address the other side too!

Yes, appears to be coming from part 050.

How many times have you taken your loader off? It looks like it's dripping from higher up...

PS, that's not a breather tube!!!
Never.

Cleaned up the entire area and will keep and eye on it to hopefully pinoint leak.

Will repsond with findings. Thanks all.
