While the oil filter debate rages on for 2 pages, what are the thoughts about using any other coolant brand other than Kubotas in your Kubota engine?

They are self-deporting before ICE gets them!

I know it is spring when the snowbirds start returning from Florida.

Look at the Landpride units.

Try Restoration Specialties, 148 Minnow Creek Lane, Windber, PA. 15963 (814) 467-9842 If you send them a sample of what you are looking for, they can usually match it to something that they have in stock.

The V plow is available for the BX with the skid steer quick implement attachment; however, it is insanely expensive. I looked into buying one a couple of years ago and was quoted $3600 in the spring because they wanted to get it out of inventory. I should have jumped on it, but I didn't, and...

In the spring, I would tear it down and examine all the parts, with particular attention to the gearbox that drives the augers. The gears in that are brass, and they no longer sell service parts. You have to purchase an entirely new gearbox. You can find some YouTube videos for assistance...

What is explicitly worn out on your snowblower? I know this isn't the time to start rebuilding snowblowers unless there is no other choice, but when spring comes, price out the parts to repair your current blower. If you need a new case, they are expensive, but compared to the cost of a new...

Because Kubota dealers want to cover the labor costs for the replacement fan, it usually takes at least a few hours, depending on how many tractors are in the shop and how big the shop is.

I usually remove the plug at the front of the gearbox, then tip the entire blower on its front to allow the lube to drain. I do this during the summer, when the oil flows more easily. If the plug hasn't ever been removed, you will need to put some muscle power on it, along with some heat from...

Haven't had the problem so far this snow season; however, I know it is going to happen, as it does every year. What do you do to prevent the dreaded chute clogging issue?

There is nothing proprietary about fuses. They are available at most auto supply stores. Some are not inexpensive; however, when you need one, you have no choice. I have a friend who works at an auto salvage yard, and he has had to buy fuses, because that is one of the first things that the...

Thanks, I broke 1 of each yesterday. First real snowfall, and at this rate, I will need a handful of each. Picked up a piece of a branch that fell off a dead limb.

Does anyone know what grade the shear bolt is on the BX2816 & BX2822? I have seen some advertised as grade 8, however, I thought that the originals were grade 5. Personally, I believe the Grade 8 might be too strong and require much more force before they shear, leaving the gearbox open to...

I remember when a high-rise building was built, and everyone marveled at the full-length glass at the ends of the halls where you could look out at the city below. According to the news report, a genius in an office took the bet that he couldn't run down the hall and bounce off the glass as...
