I have heard of this issue when I was dealing with SxS UTV's and ATV's. Very common, units that sit for a length of time even in a shed or barn, they'd still eat the wires. Lot of guys gave me good feedback on bucket traps. Also sticky traps. But the most favorable feedback was from guys...

Usually when the 3 point and the loader don't work properly, the power beyond hose and the return hoses are switched. Been a year or two since I messed with a tractor that had a LA481 FEL on it, probably a L3010 or something? On your loader hoses. Before you do anything else, switch the...

IIRC the lower amperage slow-blow fuse is for the alternator.

Seems like the WSM's are wrong on the capacities. I see it a lot. IIRC that engine holds close to a gallon including the oil filter.

As said, that engine is totally rebuildable. The reason dealers don't like to do rebuilds is that it's time consuming (extremely time consuming if they do it correctly). By time you figure in 20-30 hours labor at nearly $100/hr, plus parts, you're into replacement territory. Replacement comes...

Older G1900-S mower that I picked up a while back. Engine is TOAST (cracked from pure water). I bought it that way. It is a D722 engine. I have a good D782 from a G2160. I was going to piece together another 722 for a long term project but a friend needs a mower like ASAP. Can I put the...

If it dumped before but doesn't now, most likely either a quick coupler is not all the way on, or a hose is crossed.

It doesn't matter which blade is turned in which direction. The belt always has a bit of slippage and they never return to the same orientation after running a while. As far as left, center, and right, depends. If you mow a lot of dirt, sand, leaves...basically the stuff that wears blades...

I source the shaft from the dealer, but the bearings I get from a local bearing supply house, and they're considerably cheaper. But I usually buy 10 at a time and get about a $.03 (each) discount.:rolleyes:

tractor theft has been on the rise out here and I've heard of people putting Low Jack's in them. Not sure of the spelling, or what they do-just what I've heard.

Ether in most kubota engines is a big no-no. It's a crutch for a worn engine or one that's glow plugs are not functioning properly. If someone's had to use either to get it started, you'll want to have the injectors checked and glow plug operation checked. If those check out fine, pull the...

Probably a wire pulled out of a connector, or otherwise damaged or shorted.

Would this work? 1G026-12310 (fits ZD18 lawn mower). I "think" it can be flipped over to point downward but I haven't tried (yet).

I'm assuming this is a L3240C model (cabin). There is a plug near the seat that is for the Grammer air ride seat that can be used. IIRC, they had it kind of buried behind the right side of one of the interior panels, seemed like it had some green tape on it. Been a year or two since I've had...

It is not unusual for the level to fluctuate based on temperature.

Was the system vacuumed? If so, what micron, or what in/hg? What is the outside temp? What is the humidity? Is the belt slipping? Why was the compressor replaced? They typically don't fail UNLESS the system is neglected...e.g-let the condenser get totally plugged and continuing operation...

Resale on a Kubota hoe on a Kubota tractor is higher than, say a Woods hoe on a Kubota tractor. Generally speaking. I hear it all the time "well I don't plan on selling it"....and 5 years down the road they want/need a bigger tractor. Using the Kubota hoe will also help your trade-in...

-blades worn? (rounded tips?) Blade bent? -Are you mowing at wide open throttle? If so, move your throttle lever on the dash to full throttle, then check the lever on the engine and make sure it's up against the stop. If not, adjust it until it is. -Belt slipping? Check condition of belt...

Check the safety valves.

Look on the outside of the block for any missing plugs. On some of the bigger "L" tractors (and a few "M"s), have seen external plugs fall out causing low oil pressure-or in a lot of cases destroyed engines. The ones I seen were always passages that were drilled from the outside in and the...
