    Fixing hole in side of block

    @joesmith123 You have used the word “phaser“ a few times. You said it again in your last post or two and I copied it here: “had to dig deep into spare part bin to find all the bolt for intake manifold, long time since they have been in use installed phaser, then cover, all proper hardware,”...

    L2201DT transmission/hydraulic filter

    @Thunder Fish - are you talking about the two white filters in the picture? Isn’t one the fuel filter (left most white filter that is vertical) In this picture of a L295 I see three filters and crudely marked them: F is the fuel filter O is the engine oil filter H is the hydraulic fluid...

    How about some 140w gear oil in the front diff?

    Deaf and DUMB is that reference but used as a double entendres I believe. Used to refer to people that could not speak for the younger people in the audience. That is not a defense really.

    Kubota B3030 Loses power randomly, quits then restarts just fine

    You may need to look into the way the tractor engine stops. There is probably some sort of solenoid that controls the fuel. Some hold the fuel on when running, some shut the fuel of. Both will stop the engine when key or safety switches send signal that engine needs to stop running. Since...

    BX1870 Questions

    The tach is probably mechanical and the rest are electrical. There should be a fuse (or more) involved in the dash wiring so you might need to look at the fuses and replace some to get the dash working. On the temperature gauge yes you can buy an external electrical or mechanical gauge and...

    L2201DT transmission/hydraulic filter

    I don’t know what your tractor has but Kubota has a few types of filters for hydraulic systems: Screw on similar to an oil filter Canister style where the filter is inside a steel container Screen type that is inside the transmission (on my L185)

    My rear remote installation

    Your installation looks nice. Can you get cable control levers for that valve? The handle mounts remotely from the valve and there is a cable that operate the valve. I see that your top cylinder has the fittings on the top instead of the side, same as mine. I will warn you to verify that...

    Front wheels for a L245F

    That is interesting that the L260 is the same wheel according to Kubota and Messicks. It fits 6 models and one is the L245 but verify that for yourself please. Messicks actually shows that it is available now. When I was looking for the wheel in the past it was obsolete from the dealer. It...

    L3901H won't start

    Yes you can do that BUT what if the jumper cables are junk? Use good cables with good connection clamps and that helps eliminate the possibility of junk cables.

    Can I start my L3710 Without the Key?

    Since you are in the South you may not need the glow plugs to get the tractor started but if you do need them make sure you get the glow plugs warm, set key to run and then get it cranking all in fairly quick order or the glow plugs cool off. I know on my tractor the crank position also powers...

    Sigh, I need to tap one of my lug holes. Any advice?

    Here are some interesting lug nuts that have an “improved type” locking mechanism built in (or supplied with the nut?). But I don’t know if these would work on top of a flat washer either. https://www.nord-lock.com/nord-lock/products/wheel-nut/

    Front wheels for a L245F

    You didn’t state what type Ag or turf. I doubt that matters though, they have all dissapeared from earth. https://www.heywheel.com/ see this thread for a success story using Hey Wheel...

    Fixing hole in side of block

    @joesmith123 While the JBWeld is a fix I am not sure how long that will last due to heat. On the exhaust I am pretty certain that will fail in the near future but that will be a reasonably easy repair since it is in the open. At the cover to block junction it will work better and could last...

    Crank no start L3901

    You didn’t finish you post and not clearly stating what is going on with the injectors. I did look up OEM injectors and they are around $1000 each so the $4500 is not totally crazy since you would spend $3000 just on those and still need a few incidental parts. You seem to have a high pressure...

    L3901 steering shaft removal

    Try looking at the illustrated parts list for the steering wheel section of your tractor. https://apps.kubotausa.com/illustrated-parts/

    Changed Fuel Filter and it won't even turn over

    I don’t think that would have enough “intelligence” to know if there is air in the lines. When you say the starter is not getting triggered that means that something is stopping the start button from triggering the starter (obviously). I would assume that is some safety switch on the unit...

    Fixing hole in side of block

    @joesmith123 for testing for water leaks they sell radiator caps with pumps to pressurize the system. I have no idea how much pressure is applied but I think it would be around 10 to 13 PSI since that is what the regular radiator cap is designed to hold. Here is an example...

    M95 electrical problem

    Are you saying “clamp on cable ends” were replaced? Like these? In any case really, please just go ahead and clean all the battery cable ends (four total). I would replace the cables if you have the clamp on ends. There have been MANY MANY cases where the poster says “cables were cleaned a...

    Sigh, I need to tap one of my lug holes. Any advice?

    You may want to get to five posts and post a picture of the damaged hole. The best case scenario would be to get a thread “chaser” that just cleans and reforms the existing threads. A thread tap could be used but it would want to remove material from the hole. The material has already been...

    M7060 PTO Shaft Spins Freely

    I guess from reading closely that you are saying the PTO shaft that exits the tractor will rotate freely in both directions so something inside the tractor is broken. That is somewhat surprising considering the brush cutter blades should have folded back, or the slip clutch should have slipped...
