It looks like it is coming from that hose from the valve cover now that you said that. It only has smoke coming out when the engine is warmed up. Any ideas on what needs to be done if anything to fix?

I cannot figure out where this smoke is coming from on this F2000 with D950 engine. This season i noticed this smoke from underneath the engine and cannot find the source. Please check out the video and let me know what you think. https://www.dropbox.com/s/nbb0zwgtyzroalw/IMG_4866.mp4?dl=0

I have an 87 Kubota F2000 mower that started making a strange noise recently. I cannot pinpoint the location. It started as a low clunking sound that was would get faster as the engine rpms increased but not in sequence with the engine. That was a couple weeks ago - now it has progressed this...

I was able to replace the worn bearings in the lower pulley holder and put everything back together. The blade tightened back up and the mower worked great for a couple weeks. I just noticed today that the middle blade was not cutting well and when I checked the blade it was loose again. Not...

My RC72 mower deck gear box has a leak at the PTO shaft. I have read on this forum a couple different options to fix: 1- replace the oil seals 2- use grease instead of gear oil Since it's an older mower deck I am inclined to go with the grease as the tolerances might be off/worn with the age...

Thanks I will give that a try. I was having a hell of a time getting the pulley holder off the deck.

The bearings are attached to the deck and the spindle and pulley are removed and fine. Just did not know if I need to remove the whole pulley holder to remove the bearings or if there is a way to get them out while keeping the pulley holder attached to the deck? How do I remove the oil seal...

I decided to remove the gearbox and pulley to see if I could find anything. Not sure if this is related or another issue but once I removed the gear box and spindle I found that the bearings in the deck that go around the spindle below the pulley are bad. It only has about half of the bearings...

Picture attached.

The cup of the washers is pointing up towards the spindle

I will take out the bolt and measure it but since it was fine for the last couple months and is now having an issue, I did not suspect that to be the problem. I was thinking it had something to the do with the spindle or gearbox

The threads look fine and both washers are there and cupped with dome towards the ground.

The middle blade on RC72 mower deck stopped mowing over the last couple mows. I noticed the blade was loose. I tried to tighten with a socket and breaker bar. I was able to remove the blade and then try to re-install, but no matter how hard I try it will not tighten all the way. Any ideas...

Yes D2Cat - I do know Gus. Go Gorillas!

Thanks for the responses. I cleaned out the area and tightened the spring as much as I could. That helped. I know I will probably have to go in and replace the bushing and spring as well as the other small parts there to get a long term fix. Is there a good way to get to these parts...

I recently inherited a 1988 F2000 front mower. It runs good and cuts great. The problem is that when operating - I let off either the forward or reverse pedal and the mower keeps going. The pedal stays down or slowly creeps back up. I am able to still mow by just tap lightly on the opposite...
