    Bucket not level left to right

The bottom left side of the bucket is appx 1/2 inch higher than the bottom right side. I have lived with...

    Kubota Tach cable

    OK. The solution to the tach cable problem. Took the old cable in to the dealer's parts section. They had ordered a new cable and we compared the two new cables and the old cable. no discernible difference except the new cable was an inch or so longer. I only had the housing for the old cable...

    Kubota Tach cable

    My tractor is a manual 4 speed 4 wh drive. The cable for the HST is supposed to be the same as the DT. Do you know for sure if the cable fit the L3200 snugly. Can you ask you buddy how it fit? My tractor has almost 900 hours. Cable just broke recently.

    Kubota Tach cable

    The part number on the plastic bag the cable is in is TC415-34650. The cable is a little over 1 inch longer than the old cable. The two cable connectors openings to the engine mic to within a few thousandths of each other. I have not yet checked the threads. To the naked eye the threads look the...

    Kubota Tach cable

    The tachometer end connector is smaller than the Engine connector. No way to get them cross connected. My guess is that its a bad part, or the parts catalog misidentifies this part for my tractor or Kubota cut a few corners in making this cable fit more than one tractor. When looked up in the...

    Kubota Tach cable

    Well, the dealer is 50 miles away and would charge me labor. Don't really want to load the tractor on my trailer, haul it 50 miles, download it, wait a week and then drive back with the trailer, load it up and drive 50 miles back. I am in the area every Monday for a college level class i teach...

    Tractor turns over, wont start

    I saw the lever on top of the engine. Even has a hole in it to run a cable thru to be able to pull in case the solenoid doesn't shut off. Didn't realize what it was.

    Thanks Russell. I had found this page finally. I was looking in the fuel and electrical sections and finally started looking in the engine section. I took the solenoid off and tested it. it would not energize. Then i tested the wiring to the solenoid. I could get no reading but accidentally...

    Tractor turns over, wont start

    I have looked for a fuel solenoid around the injector pump. However I can not find anything that has a wire going to it at that location. Anyone know where it is located. I checked all the fuzes just as a precaution. The next test would be to see if fuel is getting to the injectors since i...

    Tractor turns over, wont start

    When removing the battery the positive cable clamp bolt broke off. Clamp had been tight but bolt was rusted and twisted off. Not much corrosion on cables. Cleaned. Starter spins at normal speed. I don't think I have a battery pbm or starter pbm now. I think it is a fuel pbm. I have bled the...
