    L2900 blue smoking after replacing injectors.

    white smoke typically is unburned diesel fuel - blue smoke is burned engine oil, worn valves seats, worn rings..... Where you get your injectors from? And describe a knocking ....... that in itself is a whole different problem - and describe the pinging too.

    BX1870 help

    Take a zip tie - bypass both switches and see if there is any difference - if there is, either the switch is bad or it is not closing enough to make continuity.

    B6100e 2wd tire/wheel options

    Go to your local "tire" place and see what they have in a 15" tire - if need be, measure how tall it is and that will get you close to how it measures up to what you have already. Any 15" truck tire will work - you simple pick the tread pattern you think will do the job.

    B6100e 2wd tire/wheel options

    The good news here is that you can place damn near ANY size tire on those rims within reason - since 4wd is not an issue, you can go big, small, wide or whatever. You can put ol fashion truck tires on the rear - do not get too wide there and find a 10" tire for the fronts - the options are...

    Restaurants/Retailers Accepting Cash/Not accepting Cash and Charging a fee for Using a Card/ Labor Fee

    The tread is around these parts too, cash is assumed (or check depending) where as a card will have a 3.X increase in price. Most people do not carry cash - well, young people lol.

    Downsizing Newb

    I bought a BX25D in '13 - and I do not use it enough, 400 some hours, but with the bucket on the front and the hoe on the back, it is a perfect DO ALL machine, yes I have the 60 mmm off of it, simply because I do not need to cut grass with it - I have another Kubota for that. Many here call it...

    Slasher for 6200

    Keithy, Welcome to the forum, With your 13 PTO HP - a 48" (120CM) might be a the right size anything larger will be too much - really depends on WHAT you are cutting and how thick and fast you cut it.

    U17 won't, start unless plugged in for 10 min

    BX2200D Won't stay running

    Here is something to keep in mind - the BX will run with a bad fuel pump IF THE TANK is full most of the time, once you get below 1/2 the gravity will not push the fluid to the injector pump. If pump is still fine - the fuel flow is clogged via the tank.
