    BX2660 hydrostatic pedal problem

    Thanks for the reply. I found a diagram and saw the problem. They call it the speed adjustment rod and the nut came off where it attaches to the trunnion arm. On my way to get a nut and lock washer now. Thanks for the info, guys.

    BX2660 hydrostatic pedal problem

    I was mowing in my yard and suddenly the hydrostatic pedal became inoperable like something came loose. I knew it wasn't the hydraulic system because the mid-mount mower and rear hydraulics still worked. After dragging out the mid-mount mower, I found a rod dangling that connects to the...

    Tractor Seat

    I received a nice tractor seat from a Kubota repairman, but took it back to him because the pins where it fits do not come out. They are welded on (first picture). He told me to take the plastic cover off of the seat and then take the brackets off of the seat. Put the brackets (second...

    BX2660 still getting hot

    First off, I want to thank everyone for all of their help. After much time and effort, I finally replaced my radiator. The sensor was fine. I changed the oil and put in a new air filter. Pressure was fine, etc. So I went with a new radiator. When I disconnected the hose that runs from the...

    BX2660 still getting hot

    LugBolt, Thanks for all the info. The lips on the cap of my radiator look fine. When I started it cold with the cap on, so many bubbles came up they we splashing like crazy. But if my head gaskets leaking, shouldn't I be losing antifreeze? My antifreeze level always stays the same. It's...

    BX2660 still getting hot

    I have a gauge, but it only tells me how cold the antifreeze will protect. When the coolant gets hot, it is right at the "hot" line in the overflow. The temperature gauge shows that it goes right to the red line, but not over. As a reply to a previous post: yes I do take the screen out and...

    BX2660 still getting hot

    Re: BXS2660 still getting hot 1. If the fins are clogged, what can I do? New radiator? 2. Belt tension is fine. 3. Any way to determine if it's the water pump before buying and installing a new one? 4. I ran water through the radiator and engine when right after I drained it before flushing...

    BX2660 still getting hot

    I recently changed the oil, installed new thermostat, flushed radiator and filled with fresh antifreeze (<50% per manual). I mowed for less than 30 minutes in 78 degree weather and my gauge was just below the red line. The overfill tank was on the right level, but boiling. Last night before I...

    Removing brush hog

    I bought a new brush hog for my BX2660. My wife and I had trouble attaching the PTO. I finally went on easily, but we have no idea what we did differently to allow it to slip on. Now that I'm done, I'm trying to remove it. Because of the plastic cover on the shaft, I can barely get my hand...

    BX2660 brush guard w/suitcase weights

    I bought suitcase weighs and a bracket to offset my brush hog. Once I got home I realized I cannot mount the bracket with the brush guard attached. I hate to take off the brush guard, but I don't see much else I can do. I'm not one to modify and weld stuff. Online I've seen photos of a...

    BX2660 weights

    I'm thinking of buying a 4' brush hog for my BX2660. The weight of the brush hog is around 400lbs. How much weight would I need on the front end to counter balance the brush hog? Thanks

    Kubota BX2660 tail lights

    All the lights on my Kubota BX2660 work except for the tail lights. My turn signal/warning lights and headlights are fine. Is there an inline fuse somewhere I might check or could it be something else? Thanks, Bruce

    L245 Oil Pressure Light

    Thanks, Guys. I found it just before I checked back and saw all the posts regarding the location. I don't have a way to check it so for $25 I ordered a new one. If it works, great. If not, I'll know it's not the sending unit. Another question, in addition to a screw holding the wire, it...

    L245 Oil Pressure Light

    Exactly where is the oil sending unit on the Kubota L245DT? I don't see any diagram in my owner's manual showing the location. Thanks.

    L245 Oil Pressure Light

    85Hokie, you're right. When the engine warms up, that is when the pressure drops and the light comes on. What weight oil should I use in an engine this old. The weather's been warmer than usual and I've usually run the 20 with no problems. D2CAT, I'm gonna borrow, hopefully, a gauge and...
