There is a pretty big Kubota dealer in Hood River, OR that I can see from I84. Yesterday, returning from a trip to the city, I finally stopped in there and looked around. All I can say is that my legs were shaking from sticker shock. I appreciate the ol B7100 more than ever.

Have the little guy up on jack stands and pressure washing, greasing and a general checkover before winter. I checked the engine dipstick and whoa, way over full. How the heck did that happen?!? Always a new mystery around here to solve. But counting my blessings. Seriously, this is one of the...

I haven't bought parts for a long time.... I haven't been able to see through the bowl for years and it's time for a filter change anyway. Does anyone know if this OEM specific for the bowl AND filter?? Has anybody had success at NAPA? The parts guy give me the deer-in-the-headlights look.

I can't find any new options from old posts on the part or anything in a Google search. 3/4 pipe thread. I've pondered cobbling something together but it would be an insult to the old unit for as well as its served me

One of these days my 8hp Tecumseh log splitter is gonna have that engine put to sleep with a .308. I relish the day. So before I have that party I am researching the pump on the backhoe as in some quick disconnects to run off the PTO backhoe pump to power the splitter. I would have the pressure...

Not that it makes a difference to HST to gear units but please, someone, measure the length from the dipstick seat to the upper of the oil level? Pretty please? Some years back the seat slipped on the dipstick and I'm and just guessing. I'm sure it's too full from where I guessed. Not that I've...

Hand carts, the Gorilla cart, the wheelbarrows... all have rotten rubber and I am tired of yet another garbage replacement from China and leaked down tires when I need the tool. Is there a decent foam fill kit for small tires that you are happy with the outcome?

I think they have good stuff but it isn't what you get on a Gorilla cart or a two wheel. They all rot in a year or two - they are crap. Yu buy expensive, you buy cheap stuff, they are the same crap. and there are replacements because the frame is still good but the replacements are crap. I get...

Came up the county road from 1 1/2 mile away to help a guy. Another neighbor came out and said he thinks my old geared unit with the backhoe is faster than his tractor. I can't remember what I said.... Maybe for the best.

I've have had this machine for a bizion years. I change the oil probably more than I need too. That's OK, I have a use for it. But the manual. ect, I have never got an answer. The darn dipstick: What is the fill level I should aim for? I have always split the difference across the dipstick in...

Approximately a 1984 B7100. Has anyone added an idiot light for temperature? I don't need a gauge/sending unit - just a light on the console. But I don't see any plug or accessory location that a sending unit could be installed. It's gonna be another hotter than normal summer. (but what is...

I'm finishing some things up on the rewiring project. I still have a few illusive opens, I'll find them. But here is a question: The 12v hot from the regulator to the battery connection (at the key switch) is directly connected to 12v positive to the battery (via the starter positive). As in...

It's time. 40 years old and I doubt its ever been done. I recently ordered a valve cover gasket and thought I was good to go. I looked in the WorkShopManual and, yup, there are instructions. But the instructions have the engine on a motor stand, duh. I'm looking for TDC markings for each cyl...

I'm getting ready to do some rewiring. Mostly everything electrical is out of service except for the Starting circuit. Just this last weekend I eliminated the bayonet connectors to/from the alternator/gen under the exhaust manifold. I was charging as recently as this spring but now not at all...

'81 B7001 manual xmission: Under the seat, right side top by where the 3pt pressure line comes in and the diverter accessory valve is located is this bolt painted yellow from the factory. It has a lock nut on it so it seems to be an adjuster for something. I'm guessing its a pressure adjustment...

Hi Folks, My toy tractor is down, kind of. Its stuck in low range. I pulled the cover with the shifter/MFWD levers and drained it down. Everything in the gear box is good. I can see where the range selector engages a yoke on a splined shaft and it goes through the gear case and into the...

In addition to some wiring restoration it was time to change out the 40 year old starter. It's been sluggish for quite a while and despite battery condition, new heavy cables, etc. it has just been something I tolerated because of the replacement cost. But a week ago I saw a whif of smoke coming...

Folks, under the seat on this tractor is a handle that diverts the flow from the lift arms for the PTO to an optional output. It has a threaded plug in it. Has anyone ever used this output for anything?

I was filling in a trench with the loader when I backed into a tree. Oops - the darnest things happen in low range. The yoke on the boom cylinder broke loose from the ram. It looked like it had been welded before and whoever attempted the repair, they didn't get much penetration. Anyway, I have...

Hi folks - my 1st post here: I've had the above referenced Kubota for many years. The hour meter was broken when I bought it so I have no idea how many hours are on it but its a bunch. I've been dreading the day but it has happened. The unit has always growled quite noisily in 2nd gear and...
