Hey folks.
Been awhile since my orange beast had any issues.

Its a grey ZL1802DT was carrying wood in the carryall and a friend noticed raditor fluid pouring out.

After some inspection it is coming from the top fan belt shaft.

And using the phone camera i notices that its a hole, not a crack, that the fluid was coming out of. uploadfromtaptalk1428631440018.jpg
My guess is a nut got loose.
I am outside of us/Canada so unable to get the visual catalogue from kubota to double check.

Any help regarding parts number for this nut would be appreciated. My concern is not using the correct nut length, or even if it is a nut!

Engine number is 90819
Cheers

The hole in the second picture appears to be the weep hole in the bottom of the water pump.

If radiator fluid is coming out of that hole, then you probably have a bearing and seal failure in the water pump.

That will require a water pump replacement.

Thanks for that. I am so glad now that i posted this. Imagine plugging that hole up!
Might take a quick look on the internet and see if replacing a water pump is doable for a novice.

Just had a quick look at the engine and the water pump.
Does anyone know what is the correct water pump I need for this Grey model?

I can't look any parts up for the grey market tractors.

Do you know which model it is similar to? The L1501 is close to a L175/L185 but I have no idea about the ZL1802.

It may be better to try and figure out the engine model number and figure out the part number from that.

Been trying to find the engine model number. The only number i can see is the 90819 or 90919 stamped on the top of the engine.
On a separate thread it appears that my (Z) L1802DT has either the D1302 or D1402. My next question is do both of these series 2 engine use the same water pump.
I think the ZL1802DT and L1802DT are the same only the Z was a joint venture.
If they both use the same pump then i am safe to order either one, otherwise i will really need to find which model my engine is.
