Sounds like a fuel problem. Change the filter again and check that you have free flow fuel to the pump, after that check that the mechanical pump is working. My guess is you have a plugged line from the tank or the mech pump is not functioning.

I might be wrong but I believe that the oil is sucked through the filter so you must be developing pressure some how. Run it for a little while and take off the fill cap or pull the dip stick and see if you have pressure. As suggested your breather may be plugged. I had the same problem with my...

Check to make sure the actual return line is clear. The return fuel will pressure up if that line is plugged.

Bad injector or delivery valve I'll bet.:eek:

Front end loader is a separate system run from the engine. You have a hydrostat issue. Maybe a relief valve or bad charge pump or a dozen other problems but it sound like your clutch is fine. The clutch disengages everything behind it such as the tranny and pto.

I can't say for certain on your model but most do not have a shut off anymore. So do the needle nose vise grip trick upstream from the filter. Just squeeze the hose to pinch off the fuel till you change the filter.:eek:

One way to get the oil out especially with a loader is put the loader in the high/extended position. Drain your oil and then with engine off of course let the loader down to the ground. That will push the oil out of the lift side of the cylinder and with the engine off there will be no oil...

Can anyone tell me what the HST suction screen for the b1550 should look like. I took mine out and it is very dark in color not like the hydraulic suction screen which is a nice silver color. I t is also almost impossible to shine light through it. With a very bright light you can see light but...

Shims change the timing and it would likely not run well if the timing was out much. Check you throttle linkage and make sure the throttle shaft is moving full range.

I'll bet you bent your drive shaft to the front axle!:eek::eek::eek:

Dumb question but did you change the fuel filters?

Can anybody here tell me the micron rating of Kubota B tractor fuel filters?:)

There is no need to bleed injector lines after a filter change. The only time they need to be bleed is if you run it out of fuel. I have changed thousands of filters and have never had to bleed the injectors.:D

OHHhh. Now I understand. Sounds like your rings are shot and or your oil has changed to diesel and is passing by the rings and going out the "breather". Is there allot of crankcase vapor coming out the breather too?

Please explain what you mean by overflow?? I was assuming you meant the dipstick but I am not sure what you mean.

Not sure about your engine but most tractors have a mechanical lift pump attached to the side of the engine. It can leak into the crankcase from there. Allot cheaper fix than the IP.

Loosen the crankcase drain plug and see if you get any glycol dripping out. If not then it is either diesel or hydraulic fluid. Either of those is better than glycol.

My guess is that Kubota did not size the radiator for that kind of heat. You might find a fan that has more capacity to move air but other than that slow down a little and don't work it as hard.

Unless you know you are overheating it should be cooling fine. Yours does not have a water pump and as stated before relies on convective circulation. This is a self regulating system that is why you will find it does not need a thermostat either. It is really a niffty trouble free system. Your...

Good luck finding someone to give you the answer to that one. I can explain how if you like but it depends on what you are expecting. You may get 1 or 2 more hp out of it but that will come with clouds of black soot. The small displacement engines such as yours have so little room to work with...
