    B7100 hard to turn over

    Re: B7100 hard to turn When you put the new cables on be sure to clean the metal where the ground wire attaches to the tractor frame, like no paint, metal shines. You could also have rust/oxidation on the face of the starter where it bolts to the bell housing. That's usually where the starter...

    grease problem

    When one buys something that's been around a while, who knows what's been done to it? According to the parts drawings Kubota has online it originally had a grease zert. The bearings are sealed... on the outside. Grease goes in the center of the spindle and fills the cavity between the...

    grease problem

    Are you talking about the grease fitting on the top of the spindle? If so, remove the fitting you installed and make sure it accepts grease by itself. Then clean out the dried grease/dirt with some liquid like PB Blaster and a small drill bit (turned by hand). Get it as clean as you can...

    Best older unit?

    If I HAD to choose between those three... it would be the B5100 4x4. Why, L1501 is Grey Market, and in invitation to grief finding parts. The B6000E is two wheel drive, and the PTO rotates the opposite of everything normal! The B5100 is four wheel drive, a much more common to find machine for...

    Made floor mats for my L4701

    mdhughes, I was at Menard's yesterday, and they had several products in their flooring section that looked like they'd be good for this project. If you don't have Menard's down there, probably any big box home supply store would have something similar.

    New Owner

    You probably meant diesel, but you keep talking like this, "Gas gauge did not move off full the entire time and I added gas a couple times." and someone will eventually put gas in there!!! Get a yellow container and call it diesel just to save you some grief.

    Key switch

    fatjay, you make that sound SO easy. I'd wire that sucker up and when I hit the ignition button to kill the engine my wipers would probably start on my run around truck!

    Fuel Filters on the BX series

    Daren, I just read your post: "I've always hated putting an in-line filter on a diesel. There is such a small filtering area that they plug up quick. In my line of work it's a guaranteed service call in the near future. Every piece of equipment I've had that comes in with one spliced in gets...

    AC duct work sweating TONS of water

    If there is a possible place for a water to leak and not be noticed, I put one of there nearby. They are as loud or louder then a smoke alarm. http://www.homedepot.com/p/Basement-Watchdog-Battery-Operated-Water-Alarm-BWD-HWA/100038838

    Fuel Filters on the BX series

    They call them compact tractors. So everything is as small as possible, and crowded. Relocating anything on them takes some ingenuity. I put a canister filter on the hydraulic system on my B8200. It had a belly mower and really limited room underneath. When I was figuring out what, where...

    Finally got my cab on the tractor

    Yea, them dud dobers have to have a place to live, and their industrious little buggers! Their easy to clean up after. Wait until you get pack rats working on something. I had a 2" rubber hose on the suction end (bottom of tank) on a 200 gal. spray tank. I used 2-4-D, Tordon, and a few other...
