    Mounting new LED lights on B2650HSD

    This is just what i was hoping to find. I see they offer a version that is rubber encased, but it doesn't provide a force rating. I'm going to try them anyway, the diameter is the same as the 90 lb version.

    Will not start, battery drains quickly

    Snow finally GONE, I was able to pull it out of the shed, put on a small trailer and get it into my garage to work on it. Here is where I'm at: 1. If i pull glowplugs it turns over fine and fast. Engine is not binding. 2. There was some fraying in the small black wire attached to the +ve...

    Positive on battery to positive post on solenoid (integral to starter) using car jumper cables. All this really did was bypass the +ve cable on tractor from battery to +ve post on solenoid /starter. So would this indicate a bad -ve ground somewhere?

    Will not start, battery drains quickly

    So, symptoms don't change if I go directly from +ve battery to starter post with jumper cable. I did loosen, clean and refasten negative terminal frame connection. Engine is turning but very slowly. It is not a dealer starter - ebay starter, but it sounds like it's trying to do it's thing...

    Will not start, battery drains quickly

    OK. With all due respect to the impatient Mr. Murphy here is where I'm at. New starter / new battery changed the problem but there is still a problem. It is no longer draining the battery quickly, but there does not seem to be enough energy getting to the starter to enable it to turn the...

    Will not start, battery drains quickly

    Tx Jim - yes I've tried starting with freshly charged battery and with a good charger attached with a 50A start assist setting. The battery still discharges quickly - the charger won't replenish the energy fast enough.

    Will not start, battery drains quickly

    Update Ok, I did find some mice nests ... even inside the left side black box with potted electronics (!) However after some pretty careful inspection, I could not find any evidence of chewed wires. So, some questions -can a dealer do a diagnostic check on the regulator black box to...

    Will not start, battery drains quickly

    Thanks very much for the leads everyone. I do have mice in the shed (they nested in my portable generator ... man did that stink. I had to tear it apart and remove all the .. stink). I know the previous Kubota owner replaced the solenoid with an aftermarket one I believe. I'll work on it...

    Will not start, battery drains quickly

    I have a G1900, which started and ran fine until storing in the shed in October. Tried starting the other day. Symptoms are: when I turn the key, the engine chugs slower than is normal, and won't start. I can smell fuel. It will drain the battery in about * 10-15 * seconds. If I key off it...
