I used to work for the parent company of Mobil (Exxon). I used to be in the area of blending specialty oils for sales. I totally agree that you should just change the oil by virtue of it just being old (calendar) and not necessarily used up by the machine by running the machine (hours). Oil is a...

I peeled back the wiring cover for this area. I did see a white wire there, but my Regulator has no white wire, confirmed by the WSM. I also see no white wire at the starter. Where am I confusing this point you made to find a possible three way connector that is corroded? Thanks for your help...

Still not finding drain of battery. Bought a new battery just to take that out of the picture. Still happening with a new battery. I began some wire testing on the circuitry to see if I could find a wire that may be leaking to ground. The regulator is brand new. I tested the continuity from...

Well, whatever winter Louisiana had has come and gone. LOL But, I removed the battery again before its warranty ran out and had Oreilly "test" it. Still shows to be a good battery. That said, I did the repeat tests on the voltage and found intermittent drops of voltage. I was about to order...

I have a nuisance but undiagnosed 12V drain on my battery. I have replaced the regulator, key switch, both main 12V cables and checked and cleaned all of the connection points. Battery does charge up to 100% with a battery charger and has been verified as good by Oreilly Auto where I bought it...

Rentthis, No second switch unfortunately under my ZD28 switch. Got to scratching my head some more and looked at the brake switch (which I replaced) and saw that the brake lever was barely making switch contact. I removed the bracket holding the switch and bent it to where it would make better...

RentThis, That idea of yours makes the most sense to me. I had no way to know that feature. I have the total shop manual and it says nada about that. My mower is at my other place but for sure I will check that out. I have taken and either replaced or meter tested all of the safety switches and...

I have a 2004 ZD28F that starts with the control arms out and dies when they are pulled in. Seat switch is now defeated and wired hard while I do this trouble shooting. I know the PTO switch had lots of debris under its flapper but it makes contact in the PTO disengaged position and the mower...

I bought the L345 tractor (used) this fall and only used it once to bush hog 3 acres. I checked all the fluids after use and all was fine. I am working a separate problem with the PTO H/L engage grinding a little too much and have to start the tractor up with the PTO engaged. I recently...

I just bought an older Kubota, L345 whose S/N is 11090. It has been maintained by the previous owner per conversation. I do have one problem that is needing to be corrected or fixed (including the new owner being trained on its operation). When the tractor is started with the transmission H/L...
