    1999 B21 won't start..

    Well, thanks for all the input on this issue. That's a great pic of a mighty clean engine. I've not been back here for a month so hadn't seen this pic before. I've been just living with the situation, and once I get it started I don't turn it off until I'm finished for the day. It's a...

    1999 B21 won't start..

    Ok, I was reading another article on this Site with similar symptoms. It appears that the FSS has 2 internal coils, 1 for START and 1 for RUN. When the ignition key switch is in the START position, there should be an audible SNAP of the solenoid core movement to allow the fuel rail to admit...

    1999 B21 won't start..

    Well it's rented from an acquaintance not a rental company. So can the FSS position be seen to change when it actuated? I didn't realize you could see the solenoid core move. That would be really helpful if it can be observed moving. Or if there is an indicator in it to show OPEN or SHUT. I see...

    1999 B21 won't start..

    Well, that's a very good question. I can sometimes hear a SNAP sounding like a solenoid core, but I'm not always in 'tune' with listening for it. I have noticed that sometimes I hear a SNAP soon after turning on the glow plugs and sometimes much later after the glow plugs are ON. Maybe 90 - 120...

    1999 B21 won't start..

    This has happened a couple of time now. A few days ago I ran it for half an hour, shut it off, and tried to re-start it, but no go. Starter turned over just fine, but engine acted as if it wasn't getting fuel. No sign of exhaust gas or air pressure. Tank was full of fuel, and the filter/bowl...

    Fuel Starvation ?

    Good info from all..thanks. How many operating hours can be put on this little engine, if it is maintained properly, before it becomes a rebuild concern?

    Fuel Starvation ?

    I've been using a 1999 Kubota B21 for several days now. Every time it's put under a reasonably heavy load it acts like it is starving for fuel. Especially if going up a grade of any size and length. It seems to be more prevalent if the fuel tank isn't completely full. The engine bogs down and on...

    B21 Hour meter

    Does anyone have pics or schematic dwgs of the routing of the hour-meter drive cable? I clicked on the B21 link from the LINK provided above, but it is no longer active. I have an hour-meter that is not working on a B21. I'd like to start at the engine connection, disconnect it there and see if...

    Kubota B2620 compatible BH attachments

    I'm looking at purchasing a used B2620 that has a front loader, but does not have the backhoe attachment. I researched and found that a BH65 will fit the tractor. But, it appears that the BH65 is as rare as hens teeth. I've been told that the BT601 will also fit. Can anyone confirm that for me...
