      Busy?! That looks like ten pounds of …. in a five pound bag! THAT took some planning. :good:

      I’d like to keep the six way stick if possible. Curious why you chose the tilt function to stand on its own and not the angle. White the loader wouldn’t it be more natural to keep it together with raise/lower? (Functioning as roll in that case). I guess it’s just arbitrary.

      Thanks for the great pics.

        Phil: Any specific reason for copper over steel?

        Bob: I still like the idea of upgrading the valve stack. You’re right I don’t need all the power beyond stuff… yet. :whistle: but a new set of valves I think would be good.

          Thanks Bob and Phil. Yeah blade tilt is pretty harsh. The raise/lower is aggressive as well. Now my angle adjustment is sticking. I just figured replacing the whole stack with a quality set would be the long-term solution.

          Bob, did you have to modify the mechanism that operates the three valves? It looks like your solution for the tilt valve might require a mod to fit right. Or do you have two separate levers to operate the blade now?

            Swapped out oil filter and no change in pressure. I’m going to call this minor mystery closed for now. Looking at the manual for the TY395I engine it actually calls out 0.2 to 0.5 MPa as legit pressure.

              Forgot to mention… one thought I had is that the filter might be stuck bypassing. Swapping out the filter might make a difference. Easy things first. :good:

                Replaced the filter head and filter fits great now. I put in 6 liters of oil but it just barely shows on the dipstick. Added another half liter and it hits the bottom line on the stick. Maybe this one really does take 7 liters!

                Anyway, I ran it for a bit and the oil pressure jumped up to 0.5 MPa! It used to run at about 0.3 MPa. Not sure what to think about that. I guess high is better than low but I’m not sure why the pressure would jump so much after an oil change.

                  I decided to replace the housing. Looks pretty straight forward to do.

                  Thanks for the info on the gear oil Bob.

                  How’s that retirement treating you?

                    Because nothing is ever easy…haha

                    I got the replacement oil filter. Same exact part number. Different vendor 0 Geewei instead of Rixin.

                    The old filter is more domed than the new filter. Because of this I can only get about three-quarters of a turn before it is tight. I don’t feel comfortable about this.

                    Opinions?

                      Unfortunately the dipstick came apart the first time I touched it. I could have done what you did but I had no way of knowing where the stop should be.

                      I don’t even want to analyze the stuff that came out. It didn’t smell burnt or full of diesel but it was as black as coal. I’m guessing it is massive soot contamination or it was the original stuff from China.

                      One question while we are on the subject of oil… I’m also changing the oil in the finals. Wally-mart is having a sale on 85W-140 but the label is silent on the subject of copper corrosion. Does anyone know if there is anything to worry about in the final drive compartment? A bronze bearing? Copper washers?

                        Thanks Trevor. That’s 6L on the button. Any chance I can get a copy of the document you have on the ty395? The one I have lists the capacity at 4.5L and also calls out the wrong filter number. The document says Jx0811 (which is the one you guys gave me as spare) but the one I pulled off the tractor is Jx85100A. The hole is completely different size so I need the Jx85100A.

                        Any luck finding me the various dipsticks I asked about? Obviously the engine oil one is a priority 🙂
