    i replaced the fuel filters and they were on backwards

    my tractor has had an issue with running badly intermittently with less then 1/2 a tank of fuel. i did the fuel filters the other day. i dont think the filters that i removed were OEM, seemed to be cheaper knock offs..... also the fuel filters were installed with the arrows in the wrong flow...

    Filthy tractors versus clean ones

    things i do after EVERY mowing. clean the mower deck top and bottom. i drive the tractor up on ramps and hose the grass off. if you do this on a regular basis you will have no build up what so ever. the grass will literally fall off of it. i also hose the topside off. i leave almost no grass on...

    thinking about sandblasting my cab

    i have a curtis cab that came with my BX2350, its not in terrible shape but i really should do some work to it before it starts to rot. it would appear that the previous owner was driving the tractor on the street and getting salt on the cab. it does have a fair amount of rust. these cabs are...

    how much has changed across different BX models

    i am eventually considering a loader, my dealer said that the BX2350 loader is not the same as a BX2380. i wonder if the mowers are the same between BX2350 and the latest. if in 15-20 years i need a new mid mount mower, i wonder if i will still be able to get one..... although looking at the...

    running out of fuel NOT empty

    key on, engine off you can hear a fast ticking sound. im guessing that's the lift pump? how do you verify proper operation? its not like a car where you can check fuel pressure at the fuel rail. im guessing run the tractor down until it runs badly, disconnect fuel line and see what the flow...

    running out of fuel NOT empty

    i changed all fluids and filters except the fuel filters. i planned on doing the fuel filters at the end of the mowing season before winter. i find it strange that the problem went completely away after i refueled the tractor.

    running out of fuel NOT empty

    my tractor was running badly, missing like it was starving for fuel. i looked in the fuel tank, down but not empty. i refueled the tractor, topped it off. i had a 6 gallon fuel can almost full. when i was done fueling the fuel can was still about 1/2 full...... probably put 2.5-3 gallons in the...

    proper operating RPM

    i have a friend of mine that insist that if i run my tractor at less then rated rpm, lower rpm=longer engine life. he suggests that i mow at 2,400-2,500 rpm, the tractor seems to handle the load just fine at those RPM's. what is the general consensus here in regards to maximizing engine life and...

    if i ever wanted to add a loader to my bx2350?

    the whole trade in for a tractor with a loader is likely the dealer sales pitch. the snowblower i have is a meteor i think a blade or loader on the front would be a nice complement for lighter snow removal. what is the approx cost of a loader? i might also want to put a loader to use for my...

    if i ever wanted to add a loader to my bx2350?

    i was thinking maybe some at some point after this tractor is fully paid off i might want to have a loader added. is it economically viable to do so or is it pretty much a must that you have to trade it in on another tractor? i think a loader might be useful but i bought this tractor used and it...

    front blade on a BX2350?

    my tractor is not equipped with a loader, i have a meteor snowblower 3pt that came with the tractor. since i dont have a loader i have been thinking about getting a front blade for those lighter snowfalls. is it worth having a blade on the front and a snowblower on the back. how much would it...

    bx2350 aftermarket gauges

    i think eventually i would like to add aftermarket gauges. has anyone done this before? i would like to add a real tachometer (that tiny digital readout sucks, lets face it), an oil pressure gauge, and perhaps an amp gauge. some of the factory instrumentation is severely lacking. can the...

    PTO generator for bx2350?

    just for the sake of looking, i looked at harbor freight's website. their largest generator is a 9000 surge 7250 running watts, 13 hp gasoline. it has a 8 gallon fuel tank. the run time aderstised is 13 hours @ 50% load. could we assume that a diesel tractor with a 6.6 gallon tank and roughly 18...
