I know this is an old post. Water causes such an extreme knock when introduced to a diesel cylinder because it expands 300 times when it turns to steam. That I learned when I trained for my black seal high pressure steam license. Now when I look online, the claim seems to be that water...

Thank you both for your reply. I walked into my local Kubota dealer today and asked him about the 10% off K filter sale and he looked at me like I had three heads. He's never heard of the sale. Now I'm not saying you are wrong, as my local dealer (5 miles away) isn't much. I had to wake the...

Late reply, I know. To remove a roll pin that is "stuck" take a steel rod that will fit snugly in the hole of the roll pin. Put it in the hole in the roll pin and then clamp your ground from your arc welder to a clean surface, put the end of the steel wire in your stinger and set your welder...

When all of the connecting rods are no longer connecting the piston to the crankshaft.

I think everyone thinks that they have the right to an opinion, but no one else does. An opinion, but definition, cannot be wrong, it can, however, be disagreed with.

Running a close second to Mil-spec LPS fans

Agreed. I feel everyone has the right to an opinion. I will say that I've never bought the 25K change interval. I change oil and filter at 6K, and always have. Costs me no more than having someone else change my oil. If you read my post about my Case backhoe losing oil pressure, you'll know...

Does anyone know if Kubota offers a filter service package for the L47 like they do for other tractors? I looked on Messicks and can't find a package for the L47, only individual filters listed. But, it seems that I am good at missing things on the Messicks parts pages. Thank you for the help...

I have no idea why the post repeats itself.

I totally agree with you about having an opinion jammed down my throat an endless amount of times. We part ways a bit in not giving a person a chance before you paint them with the same brush as you do others. I rode a Harley since I was 17. Stopped when my back when South when I was 62. I...

So a member is persecuted for something that others have done somewhere else? As I said, I've used Amsoil for over 35 years and concerning their products, have never tried to push my beliefs on anyone else. Actually, I don't care if anyone has ever heard of Amsoil. I am not an Amsoil "fan", I...

I've never seen you push Amsoil on this forum. However, there is something that I have learned the hard way. A person can be the fan of any brand EXCEPT Amsoil. The mere mention of the word seems to send some people into a fury. I have even been asked not to mention the "A" word on another...

My 2006 GMC Sierra 4wd 5.3 high output came stock with 2 electric fans. One ran when the air conditioner was on, the other if temperature exceeded a set mark. In 160K miles, I heard the second fan come on once, I was stuck in traffic in 100 plus degree heat with the air on high for almost an...

One of the best products to prevent battery post and battery terminal corrosion is Amsoil heavy duty metal protector. https://www.amsoil.com/p/heavy-duty-metal-protector-amhsc/ While a can of the product isn't cheap, it lasts years and years. Clean terminals, assemble and then spray using...

Years back I bought a used Diesel Rabbit. Ran great, but after a few days I noticed that the fuel gauge didn't work and when I made a left turn the engine stumbled and lost power. Called the dealer I bought it from and they ordered a new fuel tank sensor/pickup. I volunteered to replace the...

I've had battery minders and battery tenders built to service individual batteries go haywire and cook a battery to death. I won't even mention the units that sears sold as battery tenders. I bought a Battery Minder 244CEC2 and have had zero trouble since it's purchase better than 6 years...

Or he can ask his wife for them. She keeps them in a silk bag in her bureau.

The same thing happened to my stepson soon after he got married.

I have noticed an initial "additive burn off" when using Amsoil synthetic 0W20 oil in my Toyota. At first I thought I had an oil burning issue, but after seven oil changes at 6K mile intervals, once the initial one pint of "additive burn off" at about 500 miles on the new oil change, the oil...

I'm not saying this is the answer to your problem, but I had a engine lugging problem when I owned my 680 Case backhoe. I replaced all the hydraulic lines and filters, removed the hydraulic tank and flushed it and the sump screen and reassembled everything. The hydraulic pressure was down, so...
