| On my H3 which is just about complete there is a tube at the back left side of engine. This tube does not have a cap (lost). To be clear, when sitting in seat it is in front of gas tank on left and behind engine. i do not know what this is for. Does a dip stick go in it or a breather cap. I can't even figure out where it goes. I'm close to changing all fluid's and need to figure this out. |

| This tube about an inch or so tall at a bit of an angle outward with miniature radiator neck on it? |

| It should be a dip stick and breather cap. Same as on a d14 or 15 |

| Depends on how the crawler was set up. It is the circulation pump for shuttle and in some cases it’s the hyd pump too. |
