Please start a new thread. Assuming you have a BX2230, the wiring could well be different from Rob's BX2200. The diagram someone posted above is apparently for a BXxx60, which is very likely not like the OP's BX2200. Start a new thread, stating your facts, and someone can probably help you out.

Welcome. Please start a new thread. Add-ons tend to get confusing. Exact full tractor model. HST? When did it start, was it sudden, what was happening, did anything else happen at the same time? A more description usually gets a quicker, better solution.

Don't do anything drastic until you've heard from @SDT or one of the others. Parts of the B3350 emissions system have a lifetime Kubota warranty and you wouldn't want to risk voiding that.

I haven't thought this through completely, but it doesn't require a gauge. Try lowering your 3ph a little and see if the hissing stops and the loader starts working. If it does, 6 people will tell you the permanent fix. :sneaky:

@SDT is the resident B3350 expert, I believe. I'll rattle his cage.

I don't think driveability will be a problem. My BIL has one on his Ford 1520, which is similar to your B, and it has plenty of power. Depending on tire size, lifting the bit high enough to clear the ground could be an issue, but you probably have enough adjustments to make it work. Be sure to...

Formerly overhead, got pulled down due to ice storm damage in February. The new phone company's policy is we aren't coming out unless a customer loses service, and there weren't any customers left on these lines. There's no telling how much pole rent they're paying on dead lines.

The lever on the right, in front of the throttle lever, is the 3ph position control, when/if you use it. Incidentally, if you ever hook up the 3ph, you'll have to switch the valve lever behind the seat for it to function. And, very important to prevent bh valve damage, switch it back when you...

Actually, I misled you a little. This may require an observer. Put the PTO in gear, put the tractor in gear (shuttle and gear), let the clutch out. If the PTO turns but the tractor doesn't move, the dry clutch is not your problem. Since it sounds like you're not sure on the shifter, there's...

Now you've got me started on the phone company :mad::mad::mad:! The old lines out here are on the power poles. Couple of years ago, I noticed a couple of wires were hanging low where I work the tractor. Have you ever tried to contact the phone company for maintenance? Like so many companies you...

You can put a load on the PTO to test the dry clutch. PTO and travel power go through the dry clutch, only travel goes through the hydraulic clutch. If you have power on the PTO, you have power on the transmission input.

Tried out the Ford cutter Thursday afternoon. Cutting didn't take long, since so many trails are blocked. I have lots of cut and haul to do. Mowing the powerline ROW, we found the phone company's missing wire. Fortunately, it didn't get above the stump jumper. Dad's old bolt cutters came in handy.

In Google you can search "searchword site:www.orangetractortalks.com". I do this when searching a short key. It may accept boolean searchword strings, I don't know.

The feedback linkage on your 3 pt hitch needs adjustment. It's allowing the lift to hit the stop, then the pump deadheads and the relief valve opens, that's the sound you hear. The excess pressure is back pressure to the loader, preventing it from functioning correctly. The adjustment is pretty...

I came into possession of a NOS 2 ton mini-split to put in my shed. It's so old it uses R22 and is cool only, but the price was right. I decided to mount the outside unit on the wall, elevated to keep it out of the weeds. Got the brackets fabbed and mounted, then I realized how heavy it is. Katy...
