Sounds just like my bx 2200 check your filters for a slime like substance. If it is in your filters you have algae in your fuel treat the tank with an algacide and change your filters. I fought this problem almost all summer.

gonna sound crazy......but there have been cases where the sending unit in the tank has corroded and small pieces lodge in the lines. Why the temperature has anything to do with it .....not sure. Getting to the sending unit ....aint a good time

I'm thinking water in the fuel. As many tractors as I've had in the shop this year, so many of them come in and we are finding a ton of water in the fuel system...some of them run more or less fine. Yesterday did a service on an L4330HSTC, separator/filter assembly was completely full of water. Opened the valve, about 2 gallons of water came out before diesel fuel came. Tractor ran absolutely fine. I guess Kubota's can run on water?

so i removed fuel tank. as suspected the sending unit is severely corroded. big chucks of rust in tank and fuel line. have been unable to find a part number for the sending unit. wrote a nasty gram to kubota corp. waiting for reply from them. this corroded sending unit thing seems to be a problem, they should do something about this (ha i doubt they will):
