    TG1860G with Kawasaki FD590V will not start

    I do hope you are making a typo on the valve settings. Its 0.25 mm which is 0.010 inch. Plug is correct at 0.025 inch.

    B2150 Fuel Tank Leaking

    If you can't locate a replacement you could always coat the inside. There are plenty of suppliers that sell a kit to coat tanks inside.

    Kubota L2550dt, center crankcase cover

    Don't own this model but I checked Kubota parts and it's shown as one assembly. That would tell me no as Kubota would have sold it as two parts. If it looks like it will come apart what's the harm in trying.

    wrong wheel spacers maybe? or can I change out bolts?

    OK. I have a possible solution. Look into tamper proof wheel nuts. Some use a key that grabs the inside of the lug nut. That should give you room to fit. The negative is the cost to do it on your tractor. There may be a way but it's looking like the other brand spacers may be your best option.

    wrong wheel spacers maybe? or can I change out bolts?

    My post was directed at the original poster. So you have two options. Find a socket that will fit or return the spacers for another brand.

    wrong wheel spacers maybe? or can I change out bolts?

    Been reading this thread and I checked out the original studs/nuts at Kubota. From what I looked at the Kubota bolts have a taper on the head to mate up to the rim. The wheel nuts also are tapered for the rim. If this is correct and the new spacers have a tapered seat then socket head cap screws...

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    Spent a few hours with the box blade fixing the winter damage on driveway. It was so refreshing to work in isolated rain showers. One good thing kept all the dust down and when it dried its like cement.

    lifting Mower deck for cleaning

    Just this weekend pulled the deck from the zero turn. Used pallet forks with the Kubota. So much easier to service the deck and sharpen blades. Now you have a reason to get some forks.

    L4760DHST Service Call Charges

    Wow, that a hefty bill. Have gone through the same problem with a car repair. No repair approved unless I said so. Garage went and did the repair without my approval and therefore I was not going to pay. Hope it works out for you. I looked at the emissions warranty and its 5 years or 3000 hours...

    LA344s

    Go to the Kubota.com site and use the parts lookup to see what you need. You will be able to get part numbers but not sizes. At least you'll be able to see what your missing.

    B7200 metal shards/gummed up hst filter

    It's called an air vent. Should always be closed. The purpose is it allows you to bleed air from the fuel line if you run it dry or change fuel filter. If you go to Kubota books you can download the full operators and work shop manual for free.

    LA434 loader freeplay

    Good to know. Thanks. If I did want to remove upper pin should loader be installed? Looking at it I would think all load is removed from upper pin if loader is installed and bucket down.

    LA434 loader freeplay

    Have a B2601 with the LA434 loader. While installing loader this weekend I noticed a lot of play in the upper loader boom. I'm assuming there should be very little slop if I move boom side to side with weight off pin. Asking before I remove loader to inspect. Always grease and just over 100...

    B2650 1st oil change

    You can also do the vacuum trick. Shop vac attached to the hydro fill plug and you won't loose a drop of hydro oil.

    Purchased the kit through local Kubota dealer this year and it was $238.00 cdn. Also the listed kit for the B2301/2601 is a B7311. Very easy to install.
