    Won't Start

    Hey Howie, welcome to the site and thank you for posting! If you suspect a gelled fuel situation then, if it is available, get your equipment into a heated shop or shed and wait for the fuel to liquefy. You'll need to change the fuel filter and then yes, bleed your injector lines. You can see...

    Dextron? in my kubota

    Hey dusty and neil, sounds like you are both from a smaller town, funny how you've met up online before running into each other at the post office. Thanks for the compliments on the site gents, it's hard work but someone (Vic)'s gotta do it!

    B7000 Z650 engine

    Agreed. There are frost plugs all over your engine block - some in really hard to get at places (ask me how I know!). There is one in the cylinder head, one behind the gear case cover a few on the sides of the block, etc.

    Extra traction advise?

    Agreed! 1000+ extra lbs is serious business! I think I had an old car once that was so rusty it probably weighed a bit more than that!

    Kubota questions

    Hey Buck, welcome to the forum, glad to see that you are all fixed up now! Did you have to click the "Remember Me" check box near the username and password entries to be able to post properly - I know some folks on AOL are having a hard time and this fix worked for them, I was wondering if you...

    3 pt log splitter

    Hey korydz, thank you for following up. What was the price you were quoted for the Split-Fire 3203 if you don't mind sharing? I've seen a few of those around, they look pretty solid and well built.

    Emergency oil for diesel

    Doc, maybe buy a bit extra oil so that you can save yourself this torment in the future? :D

    L210

    Hello there, as Vic says, thanks for joining up to the site! I would say as a new Kubota owner, at this point, just absorb as much information as you can about your new equipment. Take some time to replace the filters, fluids and inspect the equipment as it stands now. Be sure to head over to...

    "North American" equivalent to L1802DT

    Hello Renaud, thank you for signing up to the site and posting your question. Kubota's L1802, like your father-in-law's, the L2002, L2202, L2402, L2602 are known as the "02" series of tractors and were produced as part of a joint-effort with Korea's Daedong tractor company. Everything was...

    Off Topic: Redshoe is that a halibut I see in your profile?

    Wow - another good sized fish. Food chain is right! :D Looks like everyone's hungry! Here in BC when the salmon come in to spawn, I've been on a river a few times, literally tripping over fish trying to make their way upstream, sometimes in water that is less than a foot deep. For jokes I've...

    Need help identifying what you've got?

    Hey Steve, welcome to the site! I am not surprised to hear that you are getting the cold shoulder from your local dealership. Kubota has struck the fear of God into future gray market owners and dealers alike with horror stories. We're here to help. I don't have that serial number information...

    Recommend a loader for my B6100

    I'll tell you what - that socket was ugly as hell as far as sockets go. There I've said it. But, it got the job done and it was accurate. 46mm is hard to nail and he got it right on. Even with the socket we still had to loosen the block from the frame, support it on blocks and jacks so the...

    What videos do you want to see from us?

    Ok sounds good gents - I've added adding hydraulic plugins and an overview of the hydraulic system to the list as well. Good suggestions. What else? I hope you're not tired of seeing Vic's ugly mug...
