    B1700 Maintenance items on my new toy

    Sounds like you have a good handle on it. Yes take all the drains out of the tranny. For simplicity use Kubota oil in the tranny. It is good quality and you can't go wrong using it. Change the o-ring on the fuel filter too. Who knows when it was changed last. Change both you hydrostatic and...

    B7800 No Start

    I have not figured the pattern as to why some do and some don't have a timer but I am quite sure yours will not. You should here it snap on with the key and off with the key.

    B7800 No Start

    I don't think the 7800 has a shutdown timer on the solenoid. It is energized with the key on and de-energized with the key off. No timer:)

    B3300su and belly mower

    There is no mid-pto on the 3300. States it quite clearly in all the propaganda. It is not an option so if you want mid-pto you will need the 3200.

    Sounds like you have water in the system. Should be changed. Water is not the best fluid for a hydraulic system.:eek:

    kubota that wont stop

    Likely the fuel solenoid has failed or a problem with the electrical connection. Without starting the engine you should turn on the key and then turn it off and you should hear a click after a few seconds.

    Too much oil to the top of motor

    Sounds quite odd. to be pushing that amount out. Double check the baffle is correctly installed in the breather.:confused: Just another thought...try running the engine with the valve cover off just to see what is going on. Also I had this suggested to me for this same problem, put some steal...

    Too much oil to the top of motor

    Do you have a lot of vapor coming out the breather? I don't see how you can have too much oil going to the top end. Something else is going on here.

    Too much oil to the top of motor

    I think you may only have a seal gone on the hydraulic pump. There is no connection between the engine and tranny except for a drive shaft. Someone correct me if I am wrong.

    What kind of engine oil??

    Never heard of a new engine being destroyed by good oil. The only manufacturer I know of that uses break in oil is John Deere on there larger diesels. Mercedes uses synthetic right from the get go in their diesels as do most European engine makers,:eek: At best all you will do is extend the time...

    What kind of engine oil??

    Run the factory oil till the first change then change to synthetic if you like. There is a lot made about breakin and most of it is old wives tales. Run your tractor with some common sense and it will be fine.:D
