    Diesel storage / shelf life.

    That's a real nice set up. My two diesel-eaters don't use a lot, but I usually have about 15-20 gallons in a tank that's stored in my tractor barn. I've not had an issue with storage maybe 6 mo to a year before being topped off after project work. I have a desiccant filter that I recharge...

    Real-world fluid capacities? (L3940)

    Yes, I'd like to hear what others say as well. I've found the same to be true of most machines - that is the OEM spec is "close", The examples you give though are rather far off from my experience. For oils, I use it as a guide to know about how much I should have on hand for a change. Then I...

    RTV / ATV Plastic (Hard) Roof FOR SALE ($200) - Cash and carry.

    Have you seen this site? Maybe one of their roofs would work - the soft tops are much more affordable than the hard tops. Cutting the one I'm selling might not look very good. https://www.everythingkubotartv.com/search.php?search_query=rtv900+roof

    Glow Plug Woes

    The other day I removed my injectors from the RTV for testing (more on that later). After replacing them and spilling a little fuel on the glow plugs from priming the system, I noticed some bubbles on a glow plug below where it connects to the electrical buss. Obviously there is a seal failure...

    Hazard lights only working on one side of BX series

    That's a good one. When I was restoring my RTV1140CPX, I had an old flasher and after installing hazard flashers and turn signals, the flasher would work sometimes, and other times it would take "warm up" time to work. All the while making "squeaking" noises. Yeah, I went 'round checking...

    Kubota RTV 1140, no crank no start

    The second you turn the Ign on you should hear a loud click. That's the Engine Stop solenoid pulling the injector pump rack to open/idle. If you don't hear it, then check fuses. Check the solenoid connector for 12V. My solenoid went bad *poof* all of a sudden without a warning. Yes one of the...

    Do I need rod bearings? What explains this?

    Here's a video I thought y'all might like. The guy on the left is "The Motor Oil Geek" (another youtube channel). His stuff is great but I confess, I don't pretend to understand everything. This video however talks about journal bearings and provides some good knowledge. I wanted to run out and...

    Bent front arm.

    There's a few ways to do this involving Oxy torch and chains. You have to heat up the bent portion (I assume it's supposed to be straight?) and rig up something to unbend. A much easier way might be to have a welder simply replace the bent portion. That's just a square tube and a fairly easy...
