Hi all!
So I was mowing yesterday and I stopped to clean under the mower so I left the tractor running to keep the mower up while i was hosing under the mower. When I got on and moved the tractor, it let off a puff of whitish/grey smoke on the acceleration. There is no smoke when idling or under a load, only on quick acceleration. Is it time for new injectors???

The local kubota guy would love you :p:p ;) Actually, that's normal and nothing to worry about. Especially if you lugged it down some. I personally would shrug my shoulders and keep on trucking. :D

If it starts good, runs good. Then your good :D My old l1501 is still on its original injectors at 35 plus years old, And at least 4 different owners that I know of :D

It runs great. When I start it, I get a bit of a stumble but only for a second. Its hard to explain but it only happens on the first cold start of the day. I just chalk it up to being 27 years old. :p

That's normal on an older diesel. ;)

It's just a moment of over-fueling. Don't be so anxious to spend your money!


Thanks for the advice! That's why I check here when I have a question about things that may or may not need replaced.
