My tractor is a 2012 so I would believe it’s pretty much all out of warranty

No warning light or anything came on. It did run a little hotter than normal when under a load but I just thought it was because of it being so hot outside

The rest of the tractor is in good shape. In 2019 I put a all new ac system in it and all new tires. I know it has a lot of hours but besides the motor now it’s a clean tractor

I noticed the motor running a little hotter than normal last summer but I thought it was just because it was so hot. We had record heat last year with a heat index of around 110 for weeks. Right now to get the motor rebuilt is about 3,400 then I might need the dpf around 3k then possibly...

Sorry ended up getting busy on figuring out what IÂ’m going to do So I went and talked to the mechanic and I believe I got a lot more out of him. Supposedly my muffler/burner got plugged and the exhaust had no where to go and it was going back through the motor. Wearing the pistons and...

No sir you have everything right. I am driving to the Kubota dealer today and going to talk to this mechanic face to face because he seems to not to want to talk to me on the phone. I don’t want to be rude to the mechanic but I think there’s going to be some tension because I don’t see how...

They did not ask for approval and the manger there admitted it. So they said they were going to cover all the labor they have in it and going to cover the cost of putting it back together. It sounds like some of y’all have good Kubota Dealerships next to y’all. The ones around me will sell you...

I have said we did nothing but take the valve covers off. Did not mess with any adjustments. Just took valve cover off and took injector wires off and flipped one injector wire that’s it. We did not mess with anything mechanical with the engine. And my guys work with me because they want to...

This tractor is at a Kubota dealer. I understand the compression is low but I have talked to several diesel mechanics around my area and they all say 300 is low but it should still run. They did not have my approval to tear into the motor and they know that. They are going to cover all the...

They have it torn down to the heads and has not been put back together. They said the pistons have slop in them but would the pistons be wore out and still have compression and it drove just fine to my shop beforehand. They didn’t give me the exact compression number they just said all...

Engine has 3500 hours I use this tractor for a living. I keep up on all the maintenance All my tractors are maintained where they are all leak and are stored inside. I try to replace things before it breaks because I cannot afford to be broke down in my peak season

Both top and bottom valve cover gasket was replaced The injectors were not removed The only cleaner was used was to clean the valve cover I don’t believe the rocker arms or anything right there got adjusted. Didn’t mess with none of that No starting fluid was used

You are right it doesn’t add up. That’s why I posted it to see what other people think

Yes they did find out that the cylinders had 300 before they dissembled the motor. All cylinders were at 300psi I did not authorize them to disassemble the motor. Now they are covering all labor cost Cylinder 3 injector wires got crossed Tractor was running fine when it pulled in my shop...

So would crossing a wire on one injector cause it to drop down to 300 where it can’t start anymore when I pulled it in my shop it was running just fine?

My guys were changing a valve cover gasket and when going back together they switched one of the injector wires around. The tractor would not start up and blew smoke out the engine air filter. Went back and put the wires the right way and still the same and will not start. Took it to a...
