Next time it happens I will put the meter on it and will report back.

2008 BX2350D Occasionally when trying to turn off the tractor, the engine won’t shut down with the key off. Rotating back on/off typically shuts it down, but sometimes I have to push the solenoid lever to shut it down. The fuel stop solenoid is a genuine Kubota OEM, 1 year old. I replaced the...

Thank you everyone for your input. I'll go take a look at his implements and if they look ok I'll give 'em a whirl. soopitup, I typically agree with your statement. But in this case, I'm more in-line with Jay's thoughts. I bought this little BX for cheap in non-running condition so that I could...

Hey everyone, I'm a new tractor owner, having picked up my used BX2350 (came with a brush cutter) last season. I've been learning the ins and outs of the tractor, using the bucket and the cutter to improve the homestead. I feel fairly confident with it now but I want to get a bit more...

Thanks RCW and Henro! I can definitely be a glutton for punishment. :D One of my many hobbies is restoring/fixing old machines; boats, powersports, lawn equipment, pre-EFI/computer vehicles, etc. Prefer two-strokes, but also do four-strokes (and maybe now diesels). I can definitely hold my own...

We're in business now, folks! The glow plugs should be ok. They get 12'ish V when engaged and all three of them Ohm out under 1.5. I "reversed" the injector lines so that I could cardboard test the spray pattern. The first time, none of the three shot anything. Not even a drip. I tossed them...

From the videos I watched, they did make that same statement. However, they said that about the ‘top end’ (the outputs). I took heed and didn’t touch that. I also meticulously removed the bottom end one-by-one and kept all the parts ‘matched’. Even made sure that the plungers were put back in...

Sorry for the triple post here, but an additional thought. Perhaps the injectors ARE clogged/bad. They certainly didn’t look that great on the outside (rusty). Also, the exhaust just puffs air. No color at all, only a very very faint fuel smell.

I ended up pulling the IP again and tore it down a fair bit (pull the retaining spring and pin to get the plunger/spring/cam follower). Cleaned it all up and confirmed I could blow pressurized air through the pump body. Put it back together and back on the machine and confirmed that all 3...

Well RCW, your suggestion actually was great! :D I started the search and came across a YouTube vid of a guy doing a rebuild. That gave me some new info to check and wouldn't you know it, I now have fuel pressurized strongly from the IP in 2 of the 3 outputs. I'll keep playing with it and see if...

Alright everyone, I'm back for an update. I took the time to tear down the tractor and totally removed the fuel tank. The sending unit was rusted out (no surprise) and pieces of it were in the tank. I completely cleaned the tank and got every bit of debris out of it. I went ahead and replaced...

Video of the fuel output at the second filter (before and after, same flow rate). It’s not too apparent in the video but the flow is pulsing with the pump. I’m assuming there should be a stronger and more steady flow than this. Am I correct? Fuel flow

A lot of good information, thank you all! There's a great wealth of information on this forum! Based on RCW's info about the stop solenoid, I'm even less concerned with that. Mine looks and behaves the same. I'll keep it in the back of my mind, but will cross that off the list for now. It'll...

Thanks guys! I appreciate ANY input! I'm not convinced the solenoid has any problem at this time since I AM getting some fuel at the injectors (assuming if it's off then no fuel). Just seemed odd to me that the ram only moves in/out a few millimeters. In terms of the glow plugs, I have let it...

Hey ya'll! I acquired a 2018 (I think that's what he said, but could be 2008) BX2350 yesterday with a crank-no start. 700 hours. Previous owner claimed he got bad diesel. Claimed he drained and flushed the fuel system. Said h put on a new filter and fresh fuel in and it ran for 30 minutes before...
