I've tried a half dozen times to post pics. Either my internet, file size or something is prohibiting m e from posting the pics. I will try again later or early morning.

Problem solved. Cliff's Notes summary - line between the tank and petcock on the fuel/water separator was plugged. Now for the whole story. I studied the system from tank through to the fuel rail, using the diagram. Unlike the diagram would seem to indicate, the draw from the tank comes...

Thanks all, and thanks Fordtech for the WSM. Looking at the diagram, it appears that the fuel is sucked up through a supply tube in the tank, then travels directly to the water separator. It also appears there is a drain petcock somewhere on the bottom of the tank. I'm going to pull the water...

Don't hav e the tractor in front of me. Assuming that the fuel circuit goes from the tank, to the water separator then the fuel filter then the fuel rail? So best place to blow air back to the tank is to pull the incoming line to the water separator, pull the cap on the tank, then blow its...

Yes. I'm down one the gulf coast and used the tractor at least every week or two throughout the winter to build my trails on the property. The fresh fuel thatI dispensed into the clean cans from the local gas station to fill the tractor was also dispensed into my truck. I'm 7/8 way through...

Thanks. That's the procedure I have been following.

Had the tractor serviced at 414 hours (the works - fuel filter, oil and filter, HST fluid and filters, air filter, blade, RC clutch adjustment, etc). Has 442 on it now. Ran great for about 10 hours of mowing, then while mowing it stalled. Would crank, but would not restart. Let it sit for...

I don't know if this helps or not. I have a L3901 with RC1860, running at PTO speed in medium gear (HST). I mow 21 of my 34 acres. Old farm land that is basically growing 2-3' high weeds. Takes me 21 hours. That includes at least 2-3 hours of trimming around a few trees and along the outer...

That's pretty random! Would have taken quite a while to figure that one out.

With my HST, I haven't had a need to use the brakes, except when trailering.

Odd that the L2501 HST requires clutch to start. Like others, I have an L3901, no clutch required. I've had my HST pedal stick slightly off center before, preventing it from starting. I haven't bypassed any safety switches. But I can start it while standing beside it.

Many take a very generic PIN, eg., 1111, 1234, 0000.

Now this is helpful information! Thank you!!! This was getting downright frustrating. I'll try this next week when i swap to my grapple to handle some 20' 8x8 treated posts. Mark

I have similar issues connecting the hydraulics on my FEL (L3901HST). During the summer, I pretty well have to go ahead and swap the bucket to the grapple, shut the thing down, jiggle all of the controls (bucket, HST, rear 3-pt control, etc), then let it sit overnight before I can connect the...

Any other options for wider cutting capacity on the L3901? I'm running the RCR1860 currently. My average is 1 acre an hour, just cutting typical grass/weed pasture. Some areas will get 2-3 feet tall (mostly tall weedy plants that cut pretty easy) in lower areas, most grassy areas are...

Due to the wind and resulting pollen and dust, I mowed about half of 6-7 acres backwards today. I was sometimes looking over my left shoulder, sometimes looking over my right. Zero issues. As others have suggested, must be an adjustment issue.

After 6 months of working my L3901 very hard, it's reward finally came today. Passed final inspection on my small barndominium. Bought the tractor with 58 hours on it exactly 1 year ago. It now has 326 hours on it and it's survived being outdoors everyday and through 2 hurricanes. It's...

A few years back, I bought 2 new car haulers for my son and I to haul rock crawlers out to Moab and back. Identical trailers, new Carlisle tires on both. Also bought 2 spares. In the 5K miles round trip - 3 tire failures. We did not overload the trailers, drove 70mph peak, mostly...

Built my driveway into the new barn, and set a loader tire up as another Trials motorcycle obstacle.

2017 L3901 HST 4WD. Purchased it used in March of this year with 58 hours on it. Just hit 250 hours this week. Only issue I have had is one blown hydraulic hose on the LA 525 FEL.
