    Looking at a 1975 B7000D, in Norway..

    Wow! Got the injectors back today and just had them back in before bedtime tonight. :-) It fired up nicely and had a noticeable lower amount of smoke coming right away. Didn't run it for long, but now it's ready for a clean cold start tomorrow. Since it had some air in the fuel pipes today I...

    Hey! Had some oil coming out the exhaust, so I've changed the valve stem seals now. The old ones were quite stiff and had lots of slack, the new ones are a whole lot better! Also didn't feel any particular wear/slack in the valve stems. Got some pictures to post later. Tried to clean the exhaust...

    Valve stem seals Z-650

    Hey guys. I have a 1975 B7000D with the 2 syl Z-650, and it's blowing smoke and dripping oil from the exhaust. It starts without big problems, so I'm thinking I'd start with the valve stem seals and check for play in the valve stems from the top, since it's the least amount of work than piston...

    Hehehe.. Luckily they kept the orange bits, so I didn`t trip over it! :D Kubota_plow_20150326 This is how I parked it the day before btw... Kubota_before_snow_20150325 It dug itself out with ease. With just the rear transport box I managed to clear some snow and flatten the area abit...

    Some photos of it.. First one is right before easter, when we suddenly had half a meter of snow.. And I sure wasn`t prepared for snow again! Kubota_snow_20150326 This is the rear underside, it seems like it has been painted light grey some time.. Kubota_rear_gear_20150419 The front, more...

    Thanks, maybe that is the reason why then. And I don`t know for how long that has been done.. I`m not using the decompression though, I just push the trottle all the way back. I have a Takeuchi mini digger with a 3-syl Yanmar in it with decompression too, so I knew that wasn`t the way to stop...

    Looking at a 1975 B7000D, in Norway..

    Hello again! I picked up my Kubota March 17th, and have been tinkering abit with it for the past weeks. It had really thick and black oil, so I started with that. And it has abit of smoke coming, so I figured it needed a little internal cleaning. It hasn't been running much lately, so I haven't...

    Allright guys, thank you very much for all of the information! It`s very helpful, so it looks like there will be no problem so far. I`ve asked the owner for a picture of the underside of the tractor to see if there is anything to see there, but he had broken one of his feet, so it could take a...
