    M7060 road speed

    I've driven a couple of the same tractor. Both are "weak" in higher gears. Any incline and you'll have to downshift. It's not that the engine is weak. It's that it's too weak to pull that much weight. IIRC the 7060HDC with a loader and a 72" bucket is around 7,000 lbs. Add a bale of...

    BX 2370 losing power

    That "stinking" shield has 10mm bolts holding it onto the frame, which should be around 40 lb-ft roughly. But every time I take one off, it's more like 400. I think they seize after being installed. I hate doing fuel filters on the BX's just for this reason alone!

    Unmentioned Grease Fitting

    Isn't there a splined connection at that fitting? I'll look at one...but I think there is. The shaft is splined and the steering gear is splined to the shaft, grease fitting is there. I think. I'll look at one tomorrow.

    Kubota ac lines

    Not something I run into much, but yes the dealer is correct in the pricing. Surely someone has a way to make the hoses up. I just don't know who. I have a crimper and a bunch of fittings I picked up at an auction but nothing works with Kubota-this stuff is all automotive and has served me...

    L3901?

    The DPF stops soot from entering atmosphere, that is what it's designed for. It gets dirty, and then the tractor senses the soot level and wants to burn the soot off when it gets to a certain level. Easy to understand. BUT it requires operator knowledge; and does NOT require idiocy; in fact...

    Kubota ZG327 no start

    There's a fuel shutoff solenoid built into the carburetor. Could also be an issue there too. I have one in my shop currently-rats ate the wiring under the orange engine cover-which includes the shutoff solenoid, one wire shorted to ground. If the 15a fuse is failing, there is guaranteed a...

    BX-25 bucket uncurls

    Are you talking about the loader bucket or the backhoe bucket??

    What engine is it and how many hours are on it?

    Head light blues

    Sore subject with me. My neighbor-who is also a good customer-has an '08 Silverado, same issue. He bought it to me to check out, and everything checked out fine-resistance in the wiring, voltage drop test, etc. I saw no issues. I put a set of bulbs in and sent him down the road, with the...

    gearbox woes ...

    I was just looking at a couple box housings I have out in the shop. Both are from RCK72P-331Z. They aren't able to be assembled backwards, won't go. Housing is a little bit different on each end where the snap ring lives, to the point where I could see it being a problem in trying to put the...

    B21 loader goes up slow...

    Move the 3ph lever to fully "down" position. Also make sure that the backhoe is quick couplers are clean and seated fully. Make sure the backhoe/3ph lever(s) are in the correct position, I like to move them in/out a few times ending in the desired position. Also make sure your loader valve...

    BX2660 Need to pull motor for hole in oil pan

    Easy to get engine off of those tractors. Remove hood, hood support, hoses, wirings, fuel lines, drain the radiator and remove the hoses. Remove 4 nuts on the engine mounts. Remove the 3 bolts that hold the drive shaft to the crankshaft pulley. Remove engine.

    A/C out on the Cabota again...Arrrrrghh!

    Interesting that the O-ring is failing. Only a few reasons for it. What type of fitting is it? Did they use the proper O-ring? (Green?) Or did they use a generic black O-ring out of one of those O-ring kits that come from Timbuktu at the Chinese tool stores? A/C parts require special...

    A/C out on the Cabota again...Arrrrrghh!

    Kubota does the A/C just like most auto manufacturers. They buy the compressor, they build their own lines, they buy the evap and condensor, use a mitsuboshi belt and use Japanese wires. They were at one time making their own lines, though. Remember going through the factory in Georgia...

    2015 Kubota L4701

    This is correct, and Kubota issued a publication that deals with this, to all of the dealers.

    How can I get parts for a V1505-T engine

    You won't be able to find parts for it at a tractor dealer, UNLESS they are also a KEA (Kubota Engine of America) dealer. There is no lookup for engines specifically at KTC dealers (KTC-kubota tractor corporation). If you knew what tractor came with a V1505-T you might get lucky. But I'm not...

    Kubota ZD323 Question

    Check it cold, just like the engine. I prefer to check before using it after sitting at least an hour. Reason being, oil gets whipped up in the transmission and will sit in the clutch, on all of the internal parts and if you just fire it up, let it idle, and then shut it down-wait a few...

    kubota zg123s wont start

    Re: kabota zg123s wont start This system works weird. There are TWO small wires. One gets +12v from the key switch, then through the neutral switches and PTO switch when its turned to "start". The other wire gets it's ground from the brake switch. It has to be grounded. Easy way to...

    Fuel gauge not working

    The tank is shaped odd. The top of the tank is big, wide. About halfway to the bottom of the tank, it's shape changes to a tall, narrow shape. This accounts for why the sensor reads full most of the time. The tank is not square, so at "half", it may only have a gallon left, but from half to...
