Greetings Vic. I hope you are well. I was just snooping around on here and I noticed that we are "almost " neighbours. I live just a little bit NW of Irricana, and well I have a bit of a Kubota collection myself. I just purchased today a Grey B1200 with a tiller on it. it looks pretty good cosmetically has been sitting for a bit but was running when I looked at it and going to pick it up tomorrow. Do you have a source or a contact available for parts for a b1200? I basically bought it for the tiller to go behind my Bx25, but the tractor itself looks good and I will probably go through it, and shine it up even if just to pull a garden cart or something for my daughter to putt around on.
Just thought I would introduce myself, Roger, and say hello.

Cheers

Now that I have picked my tractor. I am having a hard time finding the exact weight and length of the unit. I am looking into a trailer but need the info to get the trailer built. The dealer is of no help and I am getting different weights and total length.
L3540HSTCC3 with LA724 loader and BH92 backhoe. Loaded tires, 72" HD round back quick attach bucket, hydraulic thumb, 16" backhoe bucket. What I'm getting is Total weight 6363 lbs and 19'9" long. Does anyone have a similar outfit and know the exact weight and length. Not sure if I need an 18' 5 ton or 7 ton trailer. Thanks in advance for your help.
Vic,
I have the ZD28 and asked a question a week or so ago about an orange wire hanging loose in the engine compartment. I know now that it is connected to the power circuit of the controls. would you mind discussing this with me to try and determine what it goes to?

thanks,
Dave
Mr Vic HELP my clutch went out and i have the help to get it split but cant find the parts where to get them for a gray
Yes I was able to find an after market one at the local Kubota dealer. Thanks. Glad to see the site back up and running.
hey Ed what is the reason behind the 2 stage dump spool on my tractor. What would i use that for?Every time i push it all the way to the right it does nothing. Frank
I can get you the file I created and send it to you. The link below should be able to print you out a few for samples. I'll send you the file tommorrow from work if you are interested. I am not in the position to have more made since I do not have personal access to a 3d printer. Let me know.

HI Vic
I am in the market for a 3PT hitch for my B7001. Do you have one in stock and what is my price or can you help me find one in Canada. I would need it shipped to Nanaimo BC.

my tractor even after running for 1/2 hour or 2 hour so i did a short test were u remove negative battery cable put metefr on the ground post an ground cable and had 14.8 then started to remove fusses 1 at a time to se if number would change giving me some idea were short may be and it had to be the last one all cab fuses were fine under hood the last one was the 65 amp for the starting system so im thinking maybe my HOT the Pos is grounding out ??
Hey Vic
I am on the search for the decompression lever (the actual rod itself that goes from the mechanism and out through the dash) I was able to locate all of the other parts I needed with exception to this one piece, turns out it is a discontinued part. I thought I would touch bases with you real fast to see if you have any resources that may still carry this part or have one buried in a warehouse somewhere? Thanks in advance for your time and assistance. I guess I should have led with this bit of info, it's for a b6000. Thank you sir.
Glow plug are fine but i did find the amps range between 9-10.50 on each one. Should they be reading 12 when glow plugs are turned to on?
I'm not surprised, I didn't expect retarding the timing would correct cold misfiring. retarding it further probably wouldn't help either and 14 degrees is not enough for smooth full throttle operation. you can easily check the glow plugs, simply remove the metal bar connecting them and test them with a testlight. put the clip from the testlight on battery positive and touch each glowplug with the testlight probe the light should illuminate for each one.
