    FORGIVE ME IN ADVANCE for asking an oil question

    SUDT2 in the transmission, and nothing else. Front axle, take your pick. They come pre-filled with SUDT2. I usually refill with 80w90. It leaks out slower when it develops a leak, and that's really the only reason I use it in my stuff.

    2013 MX4700 Won't Hold PTO Idle

    me neither. I have not seen a 4700 with ANY injector problem. The front cylinder may read cooler because the front of the engine is closer to the fan, therefore your IR temp gun is picking up on the surface temp difference. I had to put an injector pump in a 5100 once, owner had been running...

    BX Filter Changes + 'Warning' and tips for New Owners

    On the BX23/24/25, put the loader down, lift the front end, then use the hoe's outriggers to lift the butt end of the tractor, go as far up as you can. Jackstands are mandatory. Then it's at least a little easier to get under it for service of the primary fuel filter. Shutoff valve ain't a...

    zd21 deck lubrication

    A very few of the really early ZD18/21's had nongreaseable spindles. Some of them had the fittings off to the side of the pulley, kind of poking up through the deck shell-and many times they're buried under dirt and clippings. On those, normally there's a cutout in the deck belt shield for...

    Zd326 radiator drain

    I "think" they're on the side of the engine block, but I haven't looked closely in a while. Usually by time I see them, there ain't a drop of water left in 'em from being neglected.

    L3010 Glow Plug Light

    That system uses automatic glow plugs.... There is a controller, relay, and wiring-all work in conjunction with the key switch and the coolant temperature sensor. The relay is an easy test. Energize it with +12v and ground from a battery, then test the other two terminals-should be 0 ohms...

    new member and new to Kubota

    That tractor (B7100, number 68027) was sold brand new 10/11/1993, from a dealer in Columbia, MO. Kubota's don't have specific year models, well the RTV's do, but not the tractors. At least not that I know of.

    3 point hitch failure after fluid change B7300 HSD

    I have seen the 7300's lose prime to the pump before. I don't remember why, but I do remember having to over-fill the system grossly to get it to pick up fluid, once primed it was good to go. Now that I think about it, wondering if the transmission case vent could be plugged? Watching this...

    PTO making noise like it's not fully engaged

    Normal sound. Here is why. The L3301 and L3901 are 3 cylinder engines. They fire a cylinder every 240 degrees of crankshaft rotation. In between firings, the crankshaft slows down a little. Then when a cylinder fires, the crankshaft speeds up. The crank is connected to the transmission...

    G2000 (Gas) Idle Speed too fast

    Screw 1 is the idle speed adjustment. Screw 2 is an air bleed. Not adjustable. Screw 3 is the idle mixture adjustment.

    mysterious suction side hydraulic leak, foamy oil on L3400

    The suction hose at the pump (the one you replaced, TC220-33332 is the new part number) is the usual cause. That said, lots of dealers a few years back still had the ORIGINAL part (TC220-33330) in stock, and they sold lots of them-and those were the ones that were prone to cracking. So if you...

    Tractor won't start

    I hear this all the time at work. 99% of the time it's the HST, either the switch is bad or it's adjust too sensitive....moving the HST pedal back & forth while holding the key to start, clutch pushed in, sometimes it'll find that sweet spot where it'll try to start. If it does, the switch is...

    G2000 (Gas) Idle Speed too fast

    The engine slow idle speed should be 1500-1800 RPM. Fast idle speed should be 3550 +/- 50.

    Hydraulic top link for B2410 HSD

    the top link is nothing more than a hydraulic cylinder. So, you will need a way to control hydrualic fluid flow to and from that cylinder. Meaning, a way to put a remote valve on it. Check your dealer. You will need 3 pieces. # BL7303 (first remote kit), then B7303 (hose kit) and also...

    L2501/3301/3901 hours and repairs?

    I deal with lots of them, not an owner though. L2501-since they've been out, haven't had a single one of them back in the shop for anything but normal servicing. Couple of them have 200 to 300 hours on them. L3301/L3901-tons of them have been back and mostly for ECU reflash and then the 3...

    Lawn Tractor slow in Forward

    First things first. Need to verify that the transmission linkage, on the side of the transmission, is CLEAN. Seen more than one get dirt in/around it and hold the links from going to full forward. Once that is clean and working properly, then check your pedal linkages. If there is ANY slack...

    Replace Throttle Cable

    There is a screen that surrounds the steering pedestal; held on with thumb screws. Remove that. May have to remove the dash as well to get better access. Even with those off you'll still need to stand on your head and possibly invent new words.

    How do I know if my L2350DT has power steering?

    Going off of memory, as it's been a long time since the L2350's were built.... L2350DT (4x4) had power steering. L2350F (2wd) did not. No pumps. Kubota's power steering runs off of the hydraulic pump and some valves. So you won't be able to find anything externally, but you may find a set...

    GR2100 Steering Seal

    THANKS for sharing that. I have several customers who have the GR2100's and now the 2110's so that is info that I can use. Big issues with the 2100's were transmission leaks and then PTO clutch failures. And of course glide steer cables. Aside from that, and getting used to how the glide...

    How many hours can you expect to get out of your tractor?

    DPF life is subjective.... Depends on a LOT of things. Fuel quality. How the engine and or tractor is used. Idle time. Lugging (lots of load and low RPM). etc etc. Think about the old non DPF tractors. Think about when they smoke. When you first start them. When you lug the engine...
