    Odd Problem!?

    The adventure begins! Cleaned the Screen, Flushed the Radiator, Resealed the Thermostat housing with new thermostat, added flush chemical and ran for a half hour. Tomorrow I will mow then flush and add antifreeze. That is the best I can do. If that doesn't fix it it's off to the dealer. (1244...

    Odd Problem!?

    My BX2200 was running hot. After mowing for a half hour the needle goes into the red zone. It was suggested I install a new thermostat. I did so. After warming up. Water and Steam busted out from the gasket! I did this repair twice! I used the paper gasket with "PERMATEX 2 FORM A GASKET...

    BX 2200 Won't Start

    You folks were spot on! The solenoid came in the mail today and I put it right on. BX2200 fired right up and KEPT RUNNING! I purchased from ARKOTRACTORPARTS on e-bay. (fast service) I can put the push mower away! Since I have the cowling off I would like to change the fuel filters. One is...

    BX 2200 Won't Start

    The saga continues... As Dave and Shelko suggested I checked the fuses. Sure enough the top most 20 amp had a broken terminal! I replaced it and the machine fired right up! Then the new fuse melted. Tried another and back to square one. I removed the cowling and located the solenoid. Looks easy...

    BX 2200 Won't Start

    Thank you for your help. Does this symptom sound familiar? If I keep the starter engaged, the engine will continue running. When I release the key the engine quits.

    BX 2200 Won't Start

    You folks helped me last month with my over heating BX 2200. I got a new thermostat. Now a new issue arose. The engine just quit. But! It cranks and restarts and runs for a second or two. What should I look for? Thanks

    You may or may not know this as a Kubota owner. The Company has NO technical Assistance for the consumer! They refer you to the Dealer (who sold me parts that don't fit) The leaves have fallen and it was time to mount my snowblower. Maybe I'll get the Vacuum working for next year.

    High Lift Mower Blades?

    I have a BX 2200 with a 54 inch deck. I am using a tow behind leaf vacuum and it picks up a lot but also leaves some leaves behind making it necessary to go over the lawn multiple times. Could a high lift mower blade help? Is there such a thing? (Please don't suggest the dealer) I believe the...

    BX 2200 &CGK60 23BX

    Are these two compatible? I recently purchased the Lawn Vac attachment. The missing components were the two brackets that attach to the tractor. I purchased them this week from my local Kubota dealer. I know I need to remove the 3 point hitch to operate the vac but it appears to me that the...
