this is true however the enginerds who designed the motors also know that if you pour 100% available current to the motor from a dead stop, the motor will not last long. Thus, the enginerds program the motor controller such that current is applied however THEY want it to be. So essentially you...

yes that's backwards i bet the operator's station ran a little warm

look at the seat switch wiring too. Wiggle the wires around and look/feel for breaks, chafing, etc.

NIH is correct. I no longer trust aftermarket stuff either. Have had customers specify the cheap stuff, and I will either (A) back away from that job or (B) offer zero guarantee on any of the job. They're usually ok with option B. Splitting and removing engine are real similar. Just a few...

30mm or 1 3/16 either one works. 6 point preferred and I usually machine the recess off of the socket so it'll grab the rounded blade bolts.

pull the seat and seat base access panel. Remove the top of the hvac box. Clean the evaporator and heater core. Those are often neglected and with 1500 hours, probably pretty dirty. That will help the system work more efficiently. if the clutch is bad, it's bad. I don't know of any...

everybody scared of turbocharger, yet nobody mentions that they are simple devices that are PROVEN in every single 18 wheeler that runs down the road. The turbocharger isn't the problem it's the owners that are usually the problem. the 2.7 makes more torque than the 5.3 down low. turbo...

depends on the material it's made of. I work with a lot of polypropylene and NOTHING sticks to it. Nothing! We have used everything, then called 3M and got in touch with an engineer to find a sealant that would stick. Nope. Polypropylene is the absolute worst material to repair, according...

yeah try doing that every day. Did it for 30 years and don't miss it any either. But it paid the bills, well mostly. There was a few times.....nevermind. pretty easy job for those who've done it a time or three. But you learned something and that in itself is important.

over yonder.

After dad passed, I bet I threw away a dozen of them in different brands. Several craftsman, among others. Had them in a yard sale along with a bunch of other stuff, dirt cheap. Nobody wanted them. Put em on marketplace. Nope. A year later I finally just tossed em. Nobody knows what they...

with rear steering there will always be some tolerance stack up. .001 here .002 there, it all adds up. Combine that with a steering geometry that is solely designed to be easy to steer, and it'll get sorta squirrelly with more speed. One could change the camber of the king pins and caster...

reduces steering effort. That is the only purpose. these were available as 2ws and 4ws. The 4ws models were easier to steer than the 2ws. I have had both and can speak from experience. The front axle is the same between the two. Mass production, why make two different front axles, right...

wife and I smoked a frozen pizza yesterday. 1 hr 15 min. Digiorno (sp?) frozen thick crust. Put it on the pellet grill at 200 deg until it was done--took about 75min. You ain't had a good pizza til you've smoked one. I did lasagna the other day, that was different. Good, just different...

that post also applies to our personal vehicles. Our standard liability insurance covers up to $50,000. A LOT of vehicles on the roads these days are double that and then some. So if you hit someone, and your insurance has to pay for it, they will pay up to $50,000 and you're on the hook for...

probably a bearing but could be a lot of other things too. Isolate it, then start normal diagnosis. Repair, then verify it is fixed.

on the ZD28 click-click-click-click-start its usually in the wiring and/or relay. check voltage at the starter's trigger wire while trying to crank-you want to see as close to battery voltage as possible. Usually when that complaint arises, the voltage is way down, IME, typically 10v or less...

That is a legitimate concern. Unfortunately, of the two hydraulic pump failures I've deal with in the ~30 years of kubota work, Kubota never paid to do a full system flush. Believe me, I have tried to get em to.

that's me. I am highly allergic to the smoke. I have had angioedima from it, couldn't breathe, rash, etc. Of course when I live out here, it never fails SOMEONE is gonna burn that stuff off and when there is smoke in the air, I go in the house. I have to keep an epipen as well. Angioedima...

alphagal disease. Never know you have it until one day you eat a burger and a few hours later you're breaking out in rash, etc, and for no apparent reason. Write it off as some kind of unknown allergy, and next time you have a steak, same thing. One of my coworker's wife has it. My ex BIL...
