Great... all is proceeding..... The beast is working again,...with a new leash of life, Forward & Reverse, Mast goes up & down...

Well until the Fuel Pump failed,:( fixed that :) & went for a quick spin, Then radiator boiled... :(
Have a new thermostat ready for install this weekend. :)
Now I have been told elsewhere that hydraulic fluid has a tendency to absorb water, & I was advised to change the Hydraulic filter, else the hydraulic pump may fail sooner than later...

I have had a bit of a snoop around & I have found a large blue metal canister , aprox 8" round & 6 - 8" high with a nut on top, I havn't investigated inside this yet, but I assume this is possibly the Hydraulic filter ??? yes/no ??

Any guesses of the part number for the filter ??


Thanks again for all the help here
