Well I sure did it good today, got the idiot award. Even on D17 day! Ugh....Played with the spool adjustments, screwed the right spool in about 3 turns and heard "POP".....Blew the smaller Hydraulic line coming from the pump that wraps under the bell housing then runs down left side under foot board. Question- is there even a good way to take it off without too much trouble? Looks like I need to pull off the seat and bracket, and even drop the Left Hydraulic Ram? Line looks like it's 10 ft. Long. Might attempt to braze it shut again, I can't imagine a shop could bend a new 1 and get it right? She's gotta have 50 bends in it.

Why were you messing with that and why 3 turns? Seems like too much! Consider yourself lucky if you didn't split the pump housing.Watch out for this one...guy turns relief in cause the old pump is worn out. Finally gives in and replaces pump but doesn't back off relief....POP! goes the pump hsg.
