The hard tube inline with the 2 lower hoses on my F2560 was broken at the attach bolt hole. Let the hose sag down to the left forwad motor mount and nearly rubbed a hole in it. Fixed the bracket, new hoses and found the bracket was bent. Readjusted and no more problem. Very similar situation.

This is from a F2560, but your F2100 radiator appears to be pretty close to the same.. #180 is the hose that connects to the small port, then the drain valve, (150-160) and then to the block, (210). It's all to drain/change the coolant as far as I know. There may be some circulation when it's...

Is there a way to test the fuel to know what you're getting?

Got it running, now chasing leaks. Steering cylinder is leaking leaking from the rear. Looks like the seals on the rod have gone away. Seal kit is no problem, listed in the parts catalog. Does anyone have a diagram of the seals? Which way the lips go specifically. 35 years of heavy aircraft mx...

Very nice!!

I have the Harbor Freight Master Diesel Test set. Remove the glow plugs and fit the adapter. Works well for me on both the D722 and D1105 engines so far.

Industry standard, in my experience, is that if a piston is oversize it's stamped on the top. Does Kubota follow this standard as well?

I'm late to the party. My GF1800 went thru a bout of not starting, randomly dying, but eventually starting and running fine- until it quit again. Checked the usual suspects, (safety switches, etc.,) Gave up and started going thru the wire harness, checking end to end continuity and finally...

There was some sand in the crevices in the bottom that had turned nearly solid. Broke it up and washed it out, then rinsed it with alcohol and diesel.

I went thru a batch of the $20 lift pumps too. Went with an OEM pump and was still having problems. Intermittent loss of power, never did totally quit, just power would fall off and run rough, then it would come back and be fine. Ended up pulling the tank, flushing it, and then found the pickup...

I checked the joints themselves, (Thanks for the tip Hugo!), they were tight. All the play was in the holes the studs go through. I elected to just replace the complete assemblies. Little more cost, but the end result is now the machine will travel in a straight line without constant...

I have had 4 GF1800's. Refreshed and sold 3. Everyone, without fail, the steering was sloppy. Kubota used very simple ends on the tie rods. Not tapered, just like a bolt from a ball joint thru a flat plate. TIghted the nut instal a cotter pin and done. All of them have worked loose. I've...

Last spring I did some work on a Ford skid loader that had a small fire. SOme of the hydraulic hardlines had gotten hot enough it melted the braze for the ferrel. I used those compression fitttings to repair. Cut the original line square, cleaned it up with some emery paper and put the new...

Update: I found this thread about the Dynamo to Alternator upgrade. https://www.orangetractortalks.com/forums/threads/alternator-upgrade-b7311-b7324-options.43436/ I had all of the parts required except for the 4 pin relay, so I used a 5 pin relay and socket, just cap and stow the extra wire...

Thanks.. Very helpful. at least I know how it is supposed to work. My alternator is at the hospital right now, should have it back in a couple of days. It is an internal regulator type. Chasing the wires, the original sky blue wires from the dynamo have been used to get the field and the sense...

I got my hands on the installation instructions for the B7324 conversion kit. But no diagram that shows the wire diagram. Instructions only show how to route the harness.

Thanks I have the WSM. No info on the alternator conversion

The previous owner removed the dynamo and installed an internally regulated altenator. No idea what the output amps are. I'm guessing more than the OEM dynamo. Regardless, it is charging the battery per my handheld voltmeter. The charge light on the dash does not work. Does anyone have a wiring...

I'll do pictures as I go. I still have a couple more times to use it chopping leaves and yard clean-up before it gets too cold to work outside. Everything works very well (980 hours on the clock) so no need to get into the engine or HST. Lots of cleaning and painting.

I found a replacement pump on Amazon for $15. Holdwell brand IIRC. Had to drill one of the mount holes a little bigger for my application, but works fine. Key on and "tick-tick-tick".
