Some thoughts on troubleshooting. Switchology on tractor set as normal: such as PTO, seat, gear, neutral, etc. 1) High current circuit. 1a) Battery has been load tested or swapped with known good battery. A new battery may not necessarily be good. 1b) Battery conductors bright and tight at...

This leads to the temperature rise to just below the red on the temperature gauge on my L3200. The result will be a permanent overheat due to the cylinder head cracking between ports. As the engine heats, everything is moving - cylinder head, gasket, engine block. By running close to the...

Glad it got resolved. No worries.

the detached green lead won’t even reach over there…is there possibly more than 1 temp sensor on this machine or something?!? Referring to the posted photo and from that side of the tractor. Find the temperature sensor electrical tab at the rear of the engine and on top close to the heat...

The lead going to the coolant temperature sensor is a light green color. Possibly the loose lead is the one supposed to be going to the sensor? The L3200, L3800 Workshop Manual, page 9-S29 has the information for troubleshooting. First I would check that loose light green lead.

Mating season. Nest real estate must be at a premium to go under a hood. One of many ways to fix. Need a copy of "L3301, L3901, L4701 Workshop Manual." Free copy at Kubotabooks.com. Last section in WSM, Electrical, has wiring diagram for the L4701, with conductor color coding. Can use this to...

Kubota does not sell individual connectors. But, that is an 8-pin connector used on Lexus and Toyota. Unique keying shown on your screenshots. One way would be to cut one off a salvaged vehicle. Another is to match up the automotive connector for ordering from an automotive connector supply.

Boatman Thanks for your reply and the documentation in your thread for your own tractor. I'm sure that saxon will be studying it.

Please, some questions for those who have split their machines. It looks that the transmission case is held by eight stud-washer-nut combinations. Splitting at this plane, does the bearing holder stay with the front of the tractor, and the transmission spacer stay with the back transmission...

saxon L3800 HST from your other thread. My take is that I would rent a tiller because of time. If you have to order parts to fix something it may take awhile and you could lose your window. Not being there, I don't know the cause of the noise and would be concerned about secondary damage from...

Well its better now. I totally drained the fuel tank, filled up with fresh fuel, added a bottle of Lucas Deep Clean Fuel System Cleaner, 5.25 oz bottle - $7.50 Fired it up and it dont miss a beat. Good news that it was simple. Now I gotta fix the PTO grinding noise. You might want to start a...

saxon I would like to have a service manual. Where is the best place to get one at a good price? Best price is free at kubotabooks.com, directory Tractor Owners Manuals, file L3200 WSM.pdf. Any dealer can order a paper copy for you to buy. The L3200 and L3800 share the same WorkShop Manual...

saxon While waiting for Dave's reply, a quick word on L3800 air purge. Many posts on this forum about watching a Youtube video and wrenching fittings to purge air. You do not want to do that on an L3800. It will purge using the knob. Just follow the operator's manual and it will work exactly...

Dave Both L3800 manual and HST have a stop solenoid coil and key stop solenoid relay. The stop solenoid coil has two wires: pull with Black/red stripe; hold with Black/blue stripe. With connector disengaged, pull terminal is on the left and the hold terminal on the right. Resistance from...

you need to find the real business addresses for two people. 1) CEO of Kubota USA 2) CEO of Kubota Japan The Japanese business model is that their dealers handle all customer interaction. However, Mr. Todd Stucke is the executive officer who covers product support. Address is: 1000 Kubota...

Loctite 567 for coarse threads; Loctite 545 for fine threads.

Thanks for sharing a good tutorial with us. Certainly shows another path to get it working when parts are not available or economical.

Thanks for sharing your work and solution.

The critical thing here is vibration and shock to the battery plates. A Kubota battery or a Deere TY21764A will be built with that in mind. The (brand deleted: I ain't married to none of 'em) ... So it does depend on how you use the machine.

What's the argument against an A-frame with ball on the back three-point hitch?
