First thanks for the tips given in my first post.I have been looking to see if there are any numbers on the pump or blade to tell me the model and year. I did not see anything on line in the places I looked. I think I can rule out the year 2019 year made

A cable operated western pump does not have a "level" plug.
There is a fill plug, on the passenger side that uses a 7/16 open end wrench, if it's still factory.
The manual stated fill with fluid to the bottom of the fill hole. Approx 2 1/2 quarts.

Ok that will help
Here is a pic of the plug I took out if it is a check valve I tried backing it of by 1 1/4 turns but it did nothing. I have a blue handle Allen key with a bandaid around it.the second picks all I can find on the motor with any numbers on it

That is not a level plug. It's a check valve as pictured in the schematic above

Trying to load a file. Well I got part of an exploded view for you. I will look in the morning, I think I have an old unit in the shed, if it is there I will pull that part out and take a few pics of it and post them.

You are absolutely right... I guess I didn’t save the correct manual in my cut and paste temporary cache... thanks for catching it.

Here is the correct diagram

It would appear that 38# is the check valve in question for you Troxy

Thanks to everyone that took the time to look up info for me. I think I must have lost the ball bearing at the bottom of the spring. I am going out today to see if I can find it I was thinking of using a magnet to find it. If I don't find it may have to go to the dealer for a check valve.i will post latter today thanks againTux

Best of luck in that quest...
Why?
It’s part of the Quill that has been used for decades on Western power units regardless if they were operated by cable or by wire.
Any western dealer will have a replacement quill or a ball bearing of the correct size.
Fyi
