I am going to take a shot and say they are same. I have a green tractor that has 2 engine oil fill caps, one on the valve cover and another located so that it fills into the crankcase. Figuring out why a engineer put two fill caps on something when one is all that is needed is next to...

I am not really that good with that particular model of Kubota but here is a free parts manual that you can get from following this link. As for the oil dipstick (Kubota calls it a oil gauge)it is about 3/4 down the side of the engine and from looking at the parts manual it looks like it is on...

Your getting there, The fun starts hen you get all the final adjustments done and you start the tracotr again..:D

Tom, I have never had much luck with batteries as the most I have ever got from a battery in a tractor is two to three years, No matter whether the battery was a expensive anti vib battery or a cheapo from Wal-Mart but for some strange reason I have had better luck with batteries that I buy...

If it works or works better on the bigger tractor who cares if it is a hair small. My thing is if I am happy who cares what others think about a undersized loader. Really it is just cheap insurance in the fact you will NEVER exceed the max weight that the tractor actually can lift as you could...

Joy stick valve replacement on the FEL, I recently went through this on a B6100 for a neighbor.

On my old Kubota L1801 I also was having a no a charging problem and so I replaced the belt, took the alternator off and had it tested and it was fine. I then took the dash apart and found the problem. I found a wire going into the regulator had been worn though by rubbing on a sharp edge. I...

Oh yea one other thing I used diesel fuel to clean the filter screen. When you remove the filter screen it is best to take the hose off and then remove the filter screen and the fitting at the same time. They are tight fitting and you will have to fight with it to get it off. Sometimes you...

OK you found the fill plug on the top of the transmission, The way these transmissions are filled is there is a level plug on the left side of the transmission about 1/2 way up the side (the left side is as if you are facing towards the front of the tractor) that is next to the clutch pedal...

Yes the engine will continue to run until you shut it off by the "kill lever" on the right hand side. My L1801 also runs after I switch it off at the electic key switch as the old Kubota's did not have a electric shut off, just the manual shut off lever. To start the engine on mine you turn...

When ever I replace a clutch pack I always replace the pilot bushing. The main reason is the wear pattern on the old one will not match the new parts and because you are replacing the input shaft it make for strange noises that are hard to find until you have to go back in and do the bushing...

I have the tiller only as it came with my orange tractor when I bought it 5 years ago. I had a cheap cultivator and ended up I never used it on my 100 X 400 foot garden. I ended up selling the cultivator as the rototiller was just much more useful for me. It really mixes the soil so much...

Here are some pictures of what mine did today, I am in the process of building a new garage and we are giving away a log cabin shed, we needed to move a ten foot by 1 foot by 10 inches of concrete slab of concrete from the front of the shed. I curled the bucket and slighly picked up one end...

Reasonable price is the key. The L185 is a stronger tractor then what it size tells you. One thing is they are LOUD when at working RPM but will work all day and come back and ask for more. The fact that you stated that you intend to use it for light blading and mowing this tractor is not...

For the Kubota manuals I placed them in clear plastic sheet protectors and then in a 3 ring binder. On the JD manuals, I ended up printing them with my printer slowly one page at a time because I printed on one side of the paper then the other and then placing the printed out page in sheet...

Did you have the flywheel resurfaced and replaced the pilot bearing? If these are not done it can cause abnormal wear to the clutch.

The L185 WSM that I got for my Kubota was $160.00, for my Kubota T1400 lawn tractor it was only $65.00. In comparsion the technical manual for my John Deere L120 was $90.00 and the manual for my John Deere 2305 was $350.00 but I insisted that the dealer throw it in for free if he wanted the...

Kubota is rather tight on the control of the workshop manuals. The best I can do is a free parts manual. Go to this link and you can still get that for free. Www.kubotabooks.com This is copyright material so a lot of folks shy away from it. Good luck in the hunt.

What was that guy smoking for that price for a B5000 and 14K. I would continue to check out the gray market dealers in your area and craiglist. There is no reason that you can not find something in your price range that is reasonable shape.

A buddy that I know did a home brew method of replacing the headlights on his old Sears lawn tractor by using automotive brake light pig tails. We wanted something that was brighter then the standard lights and simply did basic electrical testing to find the wire that had the brightest light...
