One more question. After running for a while at about 2500 rpm and at normal operating temps it develops a miss like one cylinder is missing. I have not changed the fuel filter and that is my next project. Could a clogged fuel filter do this? It has sat a lot and has 845 hours on it. After...

Yes. I start it in gear. Clutch pushed but it spins fine. I ordered a new strainer and o rings. I will replace it and see what that does. I am going to grease the throw out bearing and tie the clutch pedal back then drive the crap out of it to see if the clutch plate is rusted to the...

Ok. Great info. I was checking for slipping by putting it in low and climbing a steep hill with the clutch pedal pushed in. I was thinking that if it would slip it would do that with a load like that. My strategy right now is to replace that main strainer, the o rings on that fitting and...

I am certain the clutch is not slipping as the plate is stuck right now. I push the clutch pedal while driving and nothing happens. I am going to replace it but not until I figure out the transmission issue. I will try driving it up hill and ease up on the pedal but not sure what that will...

Ok. Hope this isn’t a stupid question then. Am I on the right track that if I test the pressure and it is low by shimming it at the relief valve it will increase pressure and will make a difference in power for the hst transmission? I don’t much care about loader operation just want to be...

Can the pump pressure be adjusted? Of course to just get to pressure goal.

Thanks for the responses. So test the port on the loader. What should psi be? I am thinking I need to replace the hydraulic pump but will check psi. Should have more power than this.

Checked engine oil. Not above the full line more than 1/8 of an inch after sitting. Damn

Ok a couple observations. When I got it the engine oil was way high. I drained and replaced with filter. I have not checked again but if high is it possible the pump is pumping oil into the engine due to bad seal? I drove again and with a mower on it this thing would either be too slow to...

Have a b1550hst that I just picked up and have questions on it. I just changed engine oil and transmission oil. Cleaned the strainers on both side which did not have much to clean off. I also changed the tranny filter and replaced oil with udt from Kubota. It seems to have power in low gear...

Bought this little b1550 today and have a few questions. I do have the side panels and it has 840 hours. It was reasonable because the steering wheel top is loose and leaking power steering fluid. I presume it needs bushings and seals. I looked on Messick and it looks like parts are available...

Thank you for the responses. Jason

RDR, I sent you a message. Interested.

Very interested. Contact me at 402 628 8238 or brianacarey@msn.com Thanks. Jason (L185 stuff)

Hi I have been told that an l185 head is the same as an l175 head but I would like to make sure. I called the dealer and they said no . They are both z750a engines but somehow the 185 is supposed to be more hp. Can anyone help with this? If they are interchangeable would the vales be the...

I am looking for a set of ag tires and wheels for a B5100 Kubota 4wd. We currently have turf tires, and would be willing to trade if someone was looking for turf tires/rims.

Thanks everyone. I will take it to a shop to be checked out before I do anything. Thanks for the replies. Jason

I unloaded all of the parts off of the trailer for my L185. I went through all of the parts, and they are all there and in apparently good shape. I cleaned up the head with a wire brush to check it out and ran into a problem. There is a hairline crack between the intake and exhaust valve on...

ps. The previous owner stated that he has a quickattach westendorf loader for this tractor that I could buy for 800. If someone was close and interested, let me know. I still have the mounts attached to my tractor that I have to get back to him. I would be interested, but I already have a...

RC, You are probably right on the pistons. It will not be the difference between the kids eating or not, but trying to save money where I can. As I wrote, I bought this really cheap and I am trying to keep this an affordable venture. I just completed a resto of a Jubilee where everything...
