Thanks Vic, my local kubota sales dept say's the same.

I have finnaly got my L185 running and cranking on the glow plugs. It seemed to have a blown head gasket and it was getting half the water out of the radiator, in the oil pan. After replacing the head gasket it seems to be fine but I still need a new radiator and water pump. I believe thats been...

Hey Vic, I finnaly got my L185 running after finding the head gasket blown. Thank goodness thats all it was. Now I need a radiator and a water pump. Whats that usualy run with you.

Eldon, I have the same tractor and I'm about to replace the head, my question is if you can tell me the torque specks for the head and rocker valve assembly. I have yet to find this out. Any help would be grateful, thanks.

Patrick, when you find out the torqe specs on the head and rocker arms I would appreciate the info if you would post them on your page. I have yet too find this out being I'm behind on this project and maybe I want have too rebuild this tractor from scrach. New rings and bearings mean food from...

patric, here is a site that I found with a complete diagram on almost any kubato tractor.http://www.messicks.com/Kubota/L185F.aspx I've also checked my local dealer to find the head for less than $600.00 bare. I have yet to have my head looked at. :(

I am almost ready to start my engine up after a total rebuild due to this exact problem. QUOTE] Thanks for the info, I've pulled the head off too find out that the gasket is saturated with oil on the bottom side and it's like backed into the gasket. I'm hoping that there is little damage as...

Come on guys I've waited three weeks for help too this problem, and its not an easy thing for me too just start pulling parts down. I believe that if water is getting into my oil and not into my radiator that tells me it can only be pinpointed too a certain area. From what I've learned in my...

Thanks for the reply: Before I break into anything I would like to figure out the most common reason for this too happen. Looking at the video it appeared too be a freeze plug in front of the motor behind the gear housing, it takes maybe less than 1/2 an hour I'm guessing before the water is in...

I was watching the video Oil in Coolant and I have just the opposite, Coolant in my oil and no sign's of any oil in coolant. Once I found this was happening I changed my oil and ran my tractor for a few minutes, maybe 10 at the most, and a couple days latter I found once again 75% of my coolant...
