Just saying Hi from North Dakota

[Wild and Free]

Just bought my first Kubota, a B2150 HSD with 950 hours. Came with a canopy box scraper and a brand new custom mounted Case L340 fel with a 68" quick tach bucket.
I am in the process of working out a few minor bugs and doing a full end to end Amsoil fluid change service.
I am not new to Kubota, I have been a heavy Diesel tech for 20 years and used to work at a CaseIH dealership which was also a Kubota dealer so I have worked on a few.
I also have a 60" Jinma snowblower.

Just wanted to stop in and say Hi.

Thanks for the welcome replys. It has been about 15 years since working at the kubota dealership but the kubota engines are in so many types of small equipment that seems there has always been a Kubota connection no matter where one works.

I can answer general questions but as far as drilling down to tractor model specifics I will do what I can. I will do my best to answer any questions, I am always full of advice.

I will get picks of my lil mule up some time especially of the "Custom" mounting of the new Case L340 loader that a previous owner did.

So far the only 2 things concerning I found while doing the full blown service was the fuel filter was so full of sludge and slime I can't believe it even ran and second and more serious was the front differential did not have a single drop of oil in it., No apparent leaks looks like it was drained and not refilled, time will tell what type of damage has been done there already or how long it has been run with no oil.

I have only put a bit over an hour on it so more issues might show up, The power steering unit seems loose and has a slight leak I have not found yet also. Will use it for the winter and maybe rebuild it next spring.

I would stay and chat longer but I have friends up here from Texas to go Pheasant hunting and I am the guide so gotta go for now, I will definately be back to chat.
