    M5-111 Clutch Issue

    Does your M5-111 have hyd reverser? If so clutch pedal controls a hyd valve. It's my WAG that hyd reverser is the component that is failing.

    M8560 Injector Pump

    A couple of years back my neighbor's M8560 that got water in fuel tank then the water grew a fungus. Kubota dealer replaced common rail pump & injectors. Common rail fuel system isn't as forgiving to foreign things in fuel system as older technology fuel systems.

    Sub soiler

    I'm curious why you elect to pull a heavy load such as a subsoiler(2 1/2') at a ""crack above idle"'? I guess you don't realize lugging a diesel powered engine is very detrimental to the engines longevity.
