    HST out on L5030 or maybe something simple.

    Range gear shift linkage-or the lever itself-has a problem. Address this first then report back with the findings. I suspect therein lies your issue. The range gear shift lever on the Grand L 30 series does not move easily when working properly-it was actually a complaint by several local...

    B6000 valve springs

    Been a while since I've done one, and the last one was a V2203 (MX5100). Anyway, I remember that the valve wouldn't drop down far enough to disappear out of the guide with the piston at TDC, thus negating needing to use an air adapter to hold the valve up. Some of these little engines you...

    Adding Rear Remotes

    You don't need to take the wheel off. Is it easier? Well not to me. I'd just as soon not fight with lining up the wheel bolts, fight with a heavy tire/wheel (especially if it's water filled). Remove the seat and the plate under the seat, that'll give you some access. Rest is just bolting...

    L3301 HST will not shift to low range

    Pull the shifter toward low gear. While you're holding some pressure on it, move the HST pedal just slightly either forward or reverse. It should go in.

    ATV drowning

    Never ceases to amaze me. Always someone who makes a boat or submarine out of an ATV. I work on them for a living. There's your disclaimer. Something a lot don't consider-and I learned this the hard way with my own stuff when I was younger and dumber. You run the ATV off into a hole, fill...

    L3901 safety switches

    I was going to offer you where and what each switch does, but when the word bypass got thrown out there, I'm out. You're on your own with that. There's a way to test each switch on the L01 series without doing anything but pushing a button. You can figure it out by use of a WSM.

    Dealer Issue

    There is more to the story I am guessing. What bracket was it? The BH77 only has 2 subframes in the kit, then a bracket that's bolted to the right subframe that holds the hoses. The subframe kit (BH4977 I think) should have had all of the stuff in it to put the backhoe on. That said, if a...

    Checking hydraulic fluid in MX4800

    I think it's under the seat, left side.

    PTO Safety Covers

    Where I live, and where I bush hog, that cover is handy. It's not only a safety cover, it's also to help keep brush from getting wrapped around the shaft. In my childhood, I grew up in an inner city neighborhood....BUT my dad had a good friend/coworker who had a farm out in western Nebraska...

    L4701 engine error codes

    All of those codes have to do with rail pressure. I'd suspect some of the wiring damaged. Or corrosion in the harness somewhere. Also-worth mentioning-has the fuel filter been changed recently? Use ONLY the Kubota filter. They filter down to 5 microns, and to my knowledge nothing...

    No power steering on 3940 2009

    Just did one today. L5240, suction hose cracked. Other guy I work with, he did a L3400 Monday. TC220-33332 on the 2800/3400 :) Not uncommon at all, and not expensive or hard to fix either. Usually don't lose much-if any-oil.

    Torque wrench broke head bolt. This sucks.

    Also depends on the lubricant used on the threads and under the bolt head. I'd have to go back & look at the WSM, but I don't think they want any lube on them. I don't remember the WSM stating either way, so dry is fine. Adding lube will change the stretch of the bolt, by making it "easier"...

    My BX is too fragile

    I see this kinda stuff fairly often. Honestly it's easy to do, I am guilty too-but I don't blame the tractor when bad stuff happens. Not usually anyway. The BX is engineered pretty well for what it was designed for. It was designed to be a big lawn mower, not a dozer. It's not a "real...

    Kubota D722 torque specification

    To my knowledge, there is nothing further that needs to be done after the initial torque.

    G1900 Help - Won't Start - Did all that I have read to troubleshoot without success

    Those mowers have wiring issues. The connectors are NOT sealed, and many many times I've seen them where the connector will develop corrosion and/or broken wiring/blade terminals either at the connectors or IN the connectors. Easy test. Start at your source. Battery voltage. Grab your DVOM...

    Synthetic 5w40 vrs Dino 10w30 in Kubota M5700

    I don't see the need for the extra expense, but if it makes people feel better, go for it.

    M5-091 2016 blows the 100 amp fuse

    I personally believe that there is an underlying cause of a blown 100A fuse, and here's why. Water can't conduct enough current to short a 100A fuse to ground. A few milliamps, maybe, but to cause a 100A fuse to burn takes a BIG short-to-ground condition. Like a loose alternator wire, or a...

    2003 Silverado Duramax injectors

    I had to do mine for the first time recently. $293 total with me doing the labor. But mine's an '03, F250 CCSB 4x4, 143,000 miles when I did them. I expected them to be gone long before based on my boss's truck-same exact truck, he got 100k out of his. I always try to buy Motorcraft or...

    L3301 Oil Change

    The books and most of the paperwork that comes with the tractor are written by the Japanese, then translated to English. I call it "Jinglish". I think that's how they screw up.
