Hello,
I'm new here, and I tried using the search function for what I am looking for, but couldn't find it. I have a BX2350D, unfortunately, purchased one of those plastic covered machines.
(long version, if TL;DR, please see below)
My tractor suddenly started to lose power and sputter and finally die during operation, at first, I thought it was dirty fuel filters, which has happened before, so I changed them out. Then I found a split fuel line, and thought it might be sucking air, so I changed that out, and yet, it kept doing the same things, so I thought it might be a faulty cutout switch (I have the seat switch bypassed, but I'm not going to say how). I walked away, and came back the next day and it started up like a champ, but after a couple of minutes it did the same thing. After a few repeated experiences and it doing the same thing, I took to the interwebz and found that it is a common experience for there to be gunk in the fuel tank and for it to block the fuel lines. Many of the posts blamed a corroded sending unit, so I took it apart, and found that is definitely the case (the sending unit stopped working about 2 years ago). I took the tank out, cleaned it all out, and will be replacing the sending unit. I will also be replacing the hoses, nipples and filters. I will also be spending some time in changing out the fender from plastic to metal (from what I understand the 2360? fender is a match) and I will be asking about that at some point, but for now, by referencing the drawings, I can't find the part number for the fuel nipples that go from the fuel tank, through some grommets and into the tank. They're all pretty corroded. I Could probably clean them out, but for the effort, I'd rather just replace them. (fuel return, and fuel supply nipples, also the equalizing, which are the same as the return)
(Short version)
So the question is this, does anyone have the part numbers for the fuel line nipples ? (see attach) Also, does anyone have any experience changing the plastic components, like fender and bonnet out on a BX2350, and have any advice?
Thank you in advance
