Default 782D fuel filter leakage
Hello All,
I'm having a heck of a time keeping diesel fuel in my Cubota 782D.

I may have one problem caused by another.

1) I don't have the toothed special wrench used to tighten/loosen the pot metal ring that tightens the plastic bowl containing the filter to the housing.

and

2) I don't know how tight to tighten this thing as a result. I have two new o-rings (Factory replacements) in there and it still springs a diesel leak from time to time. Is there some trick to this I'm missing (other than having the correct tool!)

Thanks!
John

I don't have the tool either but none of mine leak. Did you check everything to make sure the housing and assembly are in good shape?

I don't think you want "two o-rings"... I believe one should do it, as a matter of fact having two at once could cause it to leak... Check for chips or very small cracks... Otherwise there may be something wrong with the housing holding the filter. Good luck!

^^ BINGO!

One o-ring. You don't need a tool. Just a pair of channel lock pliers. (water pump plies or whatever you know them as) No need to make it tight, just snug. DO NOT crank on that ring, you'll break stuff.

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
