[QUOTE="tytower, post: 814338, member: 2399"] Seems its the same as the 165. Motor anyway -68 HP Perkins diesel - they used the 4-108 and the 4-234 or something like that -both put out about the same horsepower . The same motors were used on MF175 s and I have a couple of them [url=http://www.ytmag.com/cgi-bin/store/model_parts.cgi?SearchArea=MF&&md=304&r=zone]http://www.ytmag.com/cgi-bin/store/mode ... 304&r=zone[/url] The hydraulics are under the seat under a bloody heavy cover plate and the filter will be right down the bottom. It rarely needs changing ,its usually just a mesh screen job but here's a parts place to start and they have some images on the side you can usually locate parts from those and other sites for a 165. If you have hydraulic problems with it pull the drain plug when it has sat overnight at least and watch the first stuff out when it turns to oil put the plug back and tighten up. There is often water in the oil and it settles to the bottom. There's usually a small dipstick to the drivers right down 1/2 way up the housing sometimes its just remove one of 3 bolts and squeeze in any way you can . If the hydraulics are jerky or leaky then its sometimes the pressure relief valve but don't go there until you have explored all other options. Dont understand what you mean about changing the shift. Mine all have throttle levers so maybe yours has been removed? [/QUOTE]
