    What is this valve?

    Do you have a work shop manual? If not you can download it here: https://www.kubotabooks.com/AutoIndex/index.php?dir=Tractor%20Owners%20Manuals/

    Kubota BX23 motor mount joint separation

    Yes, it seems it is bolted (part #040). New under 100$ from Messicks, plus shipping. So you can replace it too. Not sure how easy it is to remove with the engine in. Maybe the engine has to be taken out which would explain the high repair quote you got.

    Kubota BX23 motor mount joint separation

    Not 100% sure, but is the mount bolted to the engine (yellow arrow)? If yes, you could jack up the engine a bit, take the mount off and bring it to a shop that welds it for you.

    Kubota L35 Hard Starting When Cold

    If you apply sealer, keep it very very thin. Not a big blob that is then squeezed inside the cover, possibly breaking off and causing havoc.

    3 point hitch included?

    Not the same. Left and right depends on the direction you are facing. Port and starboard do not.

    Kubota L35 Hard Starting When Cold

    I'd say the voltages you measured are correct. 0.5 Ohm / 3 = 0.16 Ohm which means with 12V there are 72 Amps flowing. Depending on the condition of the battery 10V are not unusual. Keep in mind voltage is lost over wires and contacs too. When cranking the battery voltage can drop to 3V in very...

    G1800 Stopping and Starting Issue

    The starter is controlled by the combination box. This also controls the shutdown solenoid. Since you said both are not working I would suspect the combination box or its power supply (12V or ground) being the problem. It is located on the left side of the engine block and has a round 12 pin...

    Replacing Valve Stem

    If you push off the tyre on one side you should be able to get the valve in. The rims on my G1900 are not hump type rims, like used on cars, so you should be able to push the tyre in. Maybe put the wheel flat on the ground and step on the sidewall of the tyre.

    Kubota T1880 Won't Drive

    If this pattern is not due to the driving (like in my case, typically :) ) it could be that wrong blades had been fitted, like ones for a narrower cutting deck. The width cut by each blade should overlap each other. I do not think the blade height is adjustable, only the deck height, so all...

    Seat switch bypass

    If anything else fails, read the manual :) You find it here (under B2301 B2601 Operators Manual): https://www.kubotabooks.com/AutoIndex/index.php?dir=Tractor%20Owners%20Manuals/

    2013 BX 2370 intermittently blowing the timer/relay fuse. It's highly intermittent.

    Check in the wiring diagram what circuis and switches this fuse supplies. It is very likely hat the short to chassis is caused by wiring or a safety switch. Replacing the fuse by a 12V bulb with similar current rating will give you an indication when short is present. Easier than replacing...

    Z723 mower dies/blows fuses

    Short of the cables or short within the switches to chassis / ground. Connect 12V 55W lamp instead of fuse. Lamp will light when short is present and also protect your wires, same way as the fuse.

    FedEx strikes again

    GPS is pretty precise. For locations in the country side it should be more than sufficient. The problem is that the GPS location various internet providers supply do not match the address. In Ireland they came up with an individual post code for each address. Despite the flaw in the system that...

    My pond/Food Forest

    One bump should not matter. But if you have several, with air pockets in each of them and the accumulated rise is higher than the total height the water flow could be stopped. But I cannot see how each bump could have its own air pocket, this is highly unlikely. And if (if) the initial pipe...

    B7100 hard to start

    Interesting theory that you can see glow plug current on the dash board indicator. New head: how is your valve play? Camshaft timing correct?
