Hi Everyone, Old Vermont friend now a national cartoonist but still covers his Vermont reality:

OK figured this out... AFTER I took the seat / frame off -- I was Wrong about the bolt hole depth. I was measuring blind to a step inside the bolt hole. The bottom is actually 45 mm down from the top link bracket. -- I ordered a nice asst. of Metric bolts and nuts etc.. That M12x30mm looked...

You said it just before me. But Much Better...

I lived in China for 2 years and fortunately met a young man who was very smart. We were in the big TechCity of Shenzhen but I traveled several times to stay on his Grandparents farm 200 miles inland in PingJiang (County). I was often amazed (really) at the inventiveness in making everyday...

OK, this is a long video about the need for chains. On a Kubota. In Thailand... So not QUITE OffTopic?

Thanks. I will remember that...

Thanks! Also at Amazon for less: HERE OnMyList... OffTopic: It's hard to get some of these LONG Internet links to work. Look in the link for the "?" and copy everything BEFORE that and it will usually work and be easier to post.

Thanks, John. Put that in my (somewhat cluttered) mental toolbox.

THAT'S the kind of thing I was looking for.. ! If we can find the best size for the Tractor Toolbox I'll know where to look for it next time. Anybody have these ? BTW do the bigger Kubotas have a larger similar fuel filter? ToolFreaks Unite!

@Dustball : I've found several wrenches like your photo, but their smallest limit is 2-3/8 inches or more. The fuel filter outer ring is about 2-1/8 . Anyone seen a different smaller size? "without squeezing it at only two points." is the main point. Strap wrench meets that I think..

Yes, and my experience is that the top of the radiator gets to about same temp as the engine head. Colder coolant at the radiator bottom goes back thru the heater and into the block. I think a system with a thermostat in the engine outlet would hold heat in the block better.. The larger...

@Dustball .. Link?? For the ToolFreaks amongst us...

Oh. Yeah.. Here's Mine:

Hi Fried, Thanks for various helps online. Saw you have Fords and an 8N. Here's a photo I took 4 years ago as my friend Buck Spooner down the road finished a restoration for a customer: Regards, Terry

Now THERE'S An Idea! Only if you're Bored, Click On This.. OK, I Like Klein tools... THANKS!!

Hi Yet Again, Wish there was a Sticky for "How Do I take THIS apart Without BREAKING it??" Just the fuel filter on B7100 etc. You know: That ring with the bumps on it unscrews, right? CounterClockwise like it should, Right? Hand/rag doesn't move it. LIGHT grab with Visegrips wiggles it...

Tiger, those bars are SO useful in so many places.. The hard one is where there is a shaft in place and you really don't want to pull the engine all apart.. Years ago I saw THIS kind of seal puller used in the machine shop I used for boring cylinders, grinding cranks etc. They had ALL the...

Hi, Most seals like that have a metal outer case and a resilient inner seal element. That is one unit, replaced together. Often a "hook" shaped tool is used to reach thru the resilient seal parts and grab the outer ring and pull the whole unit out. Often need to coax it a little from around the...

I WILL do THAT!

Yes, usually agree. I don't think the side panel will go on with it to the side, and I think the top position would hit the upper block. I'll get a better look with the side panel back on.. Can probably rotate it with clamps backed off and no pressure in system.. without loosing coolant...
