Thanks all for the kind words. Leo felt bad for me. He always cheers me up! LOL--he actually climbed on and became a 100lb lap dog. :sneaky:

What a week. It began with a kid going too fast down our street, losing control, taking out a corner of our fence before slamming a tree. They were ok but the new to him truck was totaled. Then we lost internet. Fought with ATT for a week. While I was at the neighbors to call ATT (no cell...

I haven't had any problems with Leo and the RTV because we prepared! Here he is waiting for his driving lesson. 🤭

They delivered today-9 names drom wh3n I ordered.. I was at 4% I had turned the furnaces off since it was a balmy day-in the 40s. I wanted to save the fumes for tonight. Whew. Drivers told me that they were 300 delveries behind. The office whined about the volume of calls due to the storm...

I had pellets when I lived in MA. Loved them. I would buy what I needed in the summner. I never ran out. The house was toasty warm all the time. Oil was my backup. I intend to do the same here with wood pellets as a primary and propane as the backup. I have had nothing but negative experiences...

Eight days ago.

Eight degrees this morning. I am adding long pants and a sweatshirt to the overcoat and hat to go feed. In a bit of a worry mode waiting for the propane delivery today. I hope it doesn't get pushed back again. We are below 10% if the gauge is reading corrently. Using propane for heating is...

It was 15 degrees in central Alabama this morning. The governor declared a state of emergency yesterday ahead of the blizzard (0-4in of snow across the state.). I rolled out my snowblower and pointed it north to ward off the snow gods. It worked. We only got a dusting of ice here. 🤣 I'll admit...

If you need the whole thing, the bonnet (hood) kit is available from Messicks. See https://messicks.com/parts/kubota/K1253-95050

I am sorry but I don't have specs. Here is what it looks like: And the switch I put in the dash (above the light switch): I had most of the parts laying around in the garage. I guess I took after dad--never throw anything away--might need it some day... :D I did buy the mount support plate...

Geez, from the title, I thought valve stem as in cylinder head…. 🤦‍♂️ I think that I am spending too much time in the innards of my motorized toys.

I lived in MA 30 years and did not know any of this. I am now even more grateful to have escaped the people's republic! 🖖

The chute rotator is electric. I made one with an auto wiper motor. 😬

A hose from the mower lift cylinder is extended to the front, near the snowblower. A second hose from the front goes back to the lift cylinder. When the mowing deck is on, the two hoses up front are connected together to operate the mower lift cylinder via the handle on the left. When the...

When I moved to AL, I got quotes from my existing company (MetLife) and USAA. Both were double the cost of the policy that the previous owner had (Allstate). I went with Allstate for the home, 3 vehicles, umbrella and specific personal property. It has, of course, gone up a little every year...

LOL. I don't answer even when I recogize the number!

You can also manually repeat the glow plug cycle before starting. Off-on-off-on-start. wait for the glow plug light to turn off before cycling.

Boy, I am sure glad that my tractors do not have an ecu. Good luck and thank you for the updates.

I bought mine (BH7500) with my first Kubota (L3010). I used it a lot at first--site work for barn foundation, removing stumps, the occasional critter burial and so on. It sat for 5+ years so I thought about selling it. Mrs. tbk5 said no--it's paid and may come in handy for other projects...

I wish I paid more attention to these no start threads. Yesterday, I moved my L3710--everything worked as it should. At the end of the day, it would not start. Glow plugs, shut off valve, lights, etc all work. Not even a click on the starter. I tried bypassing the PTO and clutch safety switches...
