BRR, check with Daryl - @Mountainman Kubota Salvage Yard www.mossycreekoutdoors.com

They look like registration marks, explain: " I hope I'm changing head gasket for tiniest of radiator bubbles. "

Have you checked or replaced air filter? RPM in neutral at WOT? High gear? geared or HST?

Jim, I have the exact SAME problem on a similar engine ( D750-AH ) I have 40+ psi cold, and a high idle it will be 18-20 hot - at low idle, it will drop off to damn near zero. I thought I had a hydraulic fluid getting into the oil - but that would not drop the viscosity as much as it was...

You nailed it - I as a former teacher, I could not have explained it better!

More to the story:

That 186 at the bottom outlet is a huge problem - you should have 100 degree (F) drop. - clean that radiator INSIDE and OUTSIDE ...... Empty and and fill with vinegar and run and empty and repeat - all with distilled water, last round JUST distilled water, Then fill with the ol 50-50. Outside...

One word !!! B r i l l i a n t

Daryl - could this be a harmonic thing? At a certain rpm a piece of metal vibrates? And once the rpm changes that harmonic is smoothed out? I have a BX1850 and once started at idle is shakes and rattles - just small adjustment of throttle it purrs like a kitten.

Anti theft

I will disagree with both above - while lifting more is better with a larger tractor, I do not think buying a new tractor with more capacity is WHAT you asked. Their argument is Kubota built it that way for a reason - yeah I get that, with lawyers and what not we have more safety guards on...

Steve, - you can juice up your hydraulics a bit, cost is very cheap too. Your 1750-1800 PSI can be bumped up to 2000 or a hair above without harm. HOWEVER - while this does help, it will place strain on all other parts of the machine and you. I have two BX models - both have their respective...

Brother - I think you JUST described 95% of all of us. Maybe not with building the house but the decision to buy a tractor and realizing HOW effective and time saving it is ! OK - and fun too!

shims are needed and the correct amount of shim. Others while chime in to guide
