Yeah go for it. The basic functions are easy to learn. They range in price from $20 for a basic one (which is all you need) to like $300 for a fancy one that does everything except the laundry. They come in handy for tracing electrical / charging issues. Just make sure it does both AC and DC.

If you have a voltage meter, check the batt voltage, start the tractor and check the voltage again. It should level out at a higher number than what it was before you started it. Then you know for sure that its charging.

Not to burst your bubble or anything but have you confirmed that it is charging now? The new battery will get you several starts and run the fuel pump for a long time before it gets low on voltage if the dynamo isn't charging. (I learned this the hard way about 3 miles from home)

If its a high pitch noise that sounds like a dry bearing, it probably is the tube coming into contact with the front drive shaft. Its a common problem on the B6000s that can usually be fixed simply by loosening the front boot clamps and rotating the boot a bit in either direction. It worked on...

Hi guys, does anyone know what Kubota model a gray market Sunshine L1-245 crosses over to? I need to order some filters from my dealer. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

Its a fuel delivery problem. Change the fuel filter.

Your pto will have either 10 or 18 splines depending on the market that it was originally designed to be sold into. I have seen adapter shafts that slip over top of the existing 10 or 18 spline shafts that convert to the 540 rpm standard 1 3/8" 6 spline shaft on ebay occasionally. In case you...

It still sounds like a fuel delivery problem to me. Especially since you changed out the fuel lines as well. I'm thinking you might still have air in the system. Make sure all your fuel line connections and fuel filter are tight. Make sure the new lines have no cracks or pin holes in them. Open...

Crack the fuel lines at the injectors and check to see if there is fuel there. Is there any smoke from the exhaust while cranking the engine? Enough fuel in tank? Petcock open all the way? Check all the cheap / easy things first, post what you find and someone will know what to check next if...

With a tractor that new, I would imagine the decals and any other parts are available from your Kubota dealer. Maintain it as per the owners manual, using Kubota parts and supplies and there's a good chance it'll outlast you. ;) Oh, and welcome to OTT and the world of Orange. You'll love your...

Yup, phone the dealer and tell them to send a truck to load it up. I wouldn't start it again until the truck is there.

I doubt its a pedal issue. Did they replace clutch, pressure plate and throw out bearing when it was in the shop?

Sounds exactly what I'd do. You mentoned doing the front diff but I don't see any 80w90 gear oil on your list. Or do you use UDT in the front diff?

I don't know if its front to back or other way around but it should be: 514 - N - 786 - N - 1498 RPM. You can tell which is the 540 setting just by watching the shaft with engine idling and pto engaged. It will be the slowest rpm's. Your tractor shouldn't grunt down that much with only engaging...

If it was mine, I'd service it. Start fresh. It might cost a $100 but its worth it. Its mint, try to make that last. IMHO.

Is it the slip clutch on the PTO shaft that was smoking? First, put the pto in neutral, shut off engine then check to make sure the tiller rotates freely by hand and isn't binding. If so it sounds like it need to be set up. There should be about 8 bolts with springs on them. Let clutch cool off...

I'm not sure where the lift pump is located on your particular unit but if you trace the fuel line from the tank you should find it downstream of the fuel filter. Also, I think there is 2 fuel filters on your machine, did u change them both?

Classic symptoms of a blockage in the fuel system or air being allowed in to the fuel system (probably upstream of the lift pump). So check all connections for tightness. Make sure the petcock on the fuel tank is fully open. Check for good fuel delivery out of the lift pump into the injection...

Hi Guys, I have a chance at good deal on a 4' Kubota front dozer blade complete with the frame and hydraulic lift assy. It is off of a B7100 and I'd like to put it on a B6200 or maybe on a B6000. Does anyone know if it will fit on either of these units? Thanks

No. If anything, the hole in the muffler would cause less back pressure, not more. Excessive blow by is a sign of a worn engine but all engines will vent a bit. If you're not using an abnormal amount of oil, it starts good and sounds alright, don't worry about it but keep an eye on the oil...
