    B3000 just died for no apparent reason

    Ive been experiencing this same recently on my B2400, no "brain" per se but looking at WSM it s the 5a fuse that powers the injection pump run solenoid. I found the back cover of the solenoid pushed out, maneuvered the wires around. Replaced the 5a fuse and it runs....for awhile then blows...

    Sealer between bell housing and engine plate

    Got it apart today, weather yesterday prevented anything being done. A lot of crap to remove this get to this point. Inside was dirty, but slightly wet, oily. Cleaned up easy enough with brake clean. Awful tiny package all said. Is most of the way back together now, will have it running...

    Sealer between bell housing and engine plate

    That actually makes sense. I figured there was a reason, just found it odd, in all the equipment I've worked on I've never seen that, just wondered if it was a former owner "add on", and that it is orange tells me it probably has been apart before. I've had the machine 8 years, throwout...

    Sealer between bell housing and engine plate

    Any particular reason there would be sealer (orange RTV in this case) between the bell housing and the engine plate ? Not just certain places, the whole outer edge. I’m in process of splitting machine to replace throw out bearing (20years old and screams on occasion) and I’m seeing this...

    Tractor not being used for 3 weeks

    Mine sat from Oct thru to Feb unused, decided to swap the loader on and mower off as we were expecting snow. Little beast hit right off on a 20° day rearing to get out and work. I was impressed.

    Dob

    Didn't say it did, thats just how i "dated" it, but then a former dealer told me it was sold new in March off '98. actual date on the wheel was 10/97 if i remember right. close enough 20 years later

    Look at the wheels, somewhere in the rear wheel there may be a date and size stamped in the steel. Thats how I dated my 97 B2400

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    careful with that, i was pulling my camper around the yard and it started pushing me down the hill, mine is singe axle 3500b. on a B2400 with loader. Still a very handy way to move them though

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    Mowed a week or so ago, started and ran just fine. Went out yesterday, did preflight fluid checks, taught my 12yo daughter how to run the weed trimmer ( hands numb from the death grip of operating a running machine ;) ) When to start up the tractor, cycled the glow plugs, turned to start...

    Diesel algae treatment products

    It's happening in the middle of July and will stop the machine, when trying to clean out the fuel filter bowl, it's like jelly, change out the filters, it runs fine, until it sits again for a period of time. adding the SeaFoam has dissolved the "jelly" and allows the machine to run. I'm...

    Diesel algae treatment products

    I usually pour 1/4-1/2 bottle of Sea Foam in the fuel tank when I fill, I haven't had problems with the filter(s) I added a secondary ) clogging up with gel since I started doing this. readily available and no more expensive than a fuel filter. I have added it after the fact and it seemed...

    Coolant questions

    first off, your machine is old enough that it won't have a recovery tank also so known as a an expansion tank. When engine and coolant get hot, the expansion of the fluid has to go somewhere, yours goes out the tube and onto the ground ( older vehicles did this for many years ), technically it...

    grease fitting

    The fittings are metric, and farm or auto supply store should have an assortment in a package for a couple bucks. I think I bought and pack at Tractor Supply when I need some for my 'bota

    Tightening rear wheel hub

    I JUST did this last night on my B2400, knew I should have taken pix ! I had to pull the hub to replace axle seal. The pinch wedges are identical, in that one side has been "notched" and the other end is smooth. One wedge goes on either side of hub bore, but the notched end on the bolt head...

    Axle seal is no longer

    Got the seals Wed, dug into it tonight after dinner, its cooler now than it will be tomorrow ( 95° expected over the weekend). I almost ordered wedge bolts, glad I didn't, as this doesn't use what I thought it did, I guess having option to narrow or widen the wheel track you get wedge blocks...

    Engine bogs to steady idle after 20 minutes.

    Check your fuel cap, see if the vent is plugged by debris, doesn't take much to not let it draw in some cases. May have to disassemble cap to find anything

    Axle seal is no longer

    using a tractor trans fluid that is UDT compatible, been in there for 5 ish years, this is the first issue I've had. the original fluid was not known, could possibly have been UDT, but it seemed pretty dark ( UDT is fairly clear if I remember right ) I ordered seals for both sides, and both...
