Kubota L245h hydraulic fluid in engine oil

PumpkinHead · Jul 23, 2020

Hello everyone,
I have an L245h that is getting hydraulic fluid in the oil. I pulled the hydraulic pump and it appears that if it is getting in through there it would have to be a seal on the pump drive shaft. Is that correct? Is there any where else that can leak. Thanks in advance.

You are right in that the only place it can get in as there at the pump drive,,, BUT be aware that
jThe shaft seal that you see there is only for drip pressure, the end plates in the pump seal the
high pressure oil away fro that area, You will have to rebuild the pump to solve the problem,
