    Diesel fuel

    Can always pull the glow plugs out, shut off the fuel and see if it cranks over easily with no compression in the cylinders. If it still struggles, then you have a pretty good idea the starter is bad.

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    It did good, very little ram push, unlike the B2410 where you could see the tractor being pushed back and forth, only on a hard hit of heavy grass do I feel it in the cab. The baler only needs 18 PTO HP to run, so power isn't an issue, weight is, and why I went with the one I did instead of a...

    GAS Prices Dont Matter

    Last November I installed a small pellet stove in our converted garage that is off the kitchen, previously we used a propane garage heater, but the past couple years, used an electric to take out the nip but not really heat it up, but downside, the house furnaces make up the difference, so...

    GAS Prices Dont Matter

    We do, in Nevada. What people have is more money than brains. When these idiots are tailgating me because I wont go more than 5 ove on the country roads I want to say to them, fill my tank and I wil be more than happy to waste it driving 70 in a 55.

    Sticker SHOCK

    The filters on the B2410 for air, fuel HST and oil comes out to just under $100. Since I just got the fuel and oil, the majority of the bill was just the three filters for the l4060. Nearly $200 in just filters. I still have 10 hours before it needs it, but since i was there.

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    Baled 62 bales of hay with the L4060 and NH 273 haybine. At least now I know that once I get the weeds out and the right grasses fully established, I will be somewhere around 240 bales per cutting, thats good for ~ $1200 in hay.

    Sticker SHOCK

    OH NO!! Like my trucks and cars, only OEM filters go on. No aftermarket cheapos for me, Except my John Deere X500, I found out that the JD Green filter is off the exact same line as Mobil 1, right down to the part number stamped on the case. If I can't get the JD I know the Mobil 1 will work...

    Diesel fuel

    Did you completely flush the fuel system? Sounds like residual gas is still in the mix, and gas does not compress, it goes off prematurely and can make it run as you described. If it continues to do this, there could be injector damage or pump damage, but fingers crossed, only a one time thing.

    Sticker SHOCK

    I needed an oil filter for my B2410 for its 500 hour service, already have the other filters on had. Thought, while I'm here, my new L4060HSTC has ~ 40 hours on it, might as well pick up the filters for it too. One HST filter was $56, the other $78! WOW, I was not expecting that!!! I know...

    Lifting 5gal cans of diesel fuel a problem

    Man, I tell you what. That 30 gallon rolling tank I was given. I think I figured out what the pump was supposed to be, a rotary crank like that pictured above with a 3/4 NPT inlet to screw it to the pipe. then it has a 2" filler neck, and a tank level indicator. It is NOT DOT approved to be...

    In market for budget welder

    Look into a Clarke 180EN or whatever may have replaced it. I have one, it comes with the gas regulator and can use either gas or flux core. Has 6 power ranges and wirespeed, along with a tweco style gun. It uses 220v, but does weld up to 1/2" if beveled properly. I made this using that welder...

    In market for budget welder

    I have a Clarke 180EN I Flux core weld with. It takes a little practice getting the settings right, has 6 power levels and wire speed, but once you get them set, it welds easy as pie. I think there is a lot more to learn with stick welding than MIG. With MIG, wire speed is the most important...

    Lifting 5gal cans of diesel fuel a problem

    I just point out what can be found in the interwebs. RDS does not show up in searches. So the tank you are using has the DOT approved rollover venting? Thats all I am asking because it looks exactly like the tank I have which is not DOT approved to transfer gasoline.

    Not a tractor but I found it in the barn

    Weigh it, find out what the scrap per pound is and double it.

    Lifting 5gal cans of diesel fuel a problem

    Actually the differences are not something you can actually see as they are internal to the tank. The only tanks sold in the US that are legal for transporting more than 8 gallons are Transfer Flow tanks. They have the proper venting and roll over valves required. Everything else is pretty...

    Thats a good setup. Build a small platform for it from 2x4 that you can lift with the bucket, save the back.

    L4060 - Recommendation for rear grass - brush cutter

    No kidding. Been trying to find a low priced tedder around here, those that are low need work, anything new that is reasonable it too far away. I may just bite the bullet and get the 2 YO new one that has faded paint and been sitting outside 2 years.

    Yeah, sorry about the long winded reply, Reason I asked if it was rated for gas was because of the above that I posted, not for anything else.
