Boy, a lot of things going bad in a short time.
I have an oil leak where the throttle shaft comes out of the plate on the Kubota engine. Is there an o-ring under there or is it a special seal? If an O-ring will one out of a standard O-ring kit work or get one from bobcat/Kubota dealer? Also has some side to side play is that normal or is it maybe worn?
Does the whole plate have to be removed to get at the seal or can the lever be removed and the seal accessed from the top?

Thanks,
Al.

I'm working with a guy w/ a pump problem that sent me a breakdown of the cover..
IF you PM me your email, I'll forward you the breakdown..

Thank you.
Can I take the throttle arm off, lift off the bushing and pick out the o-ring?

Thanks guys, I got the part number of the o-ring and of course the tractor place on Vancouver Island doesn't have one but it's on the way.
