It was my guess that it was something to do with fuel delivery. Thanks so much for the quick reply. I will give it a shot and report back. Likely some time this week. I wasn't too pull the cab of too to get at the dash for rewire. Might be tough as it is sold steel. Not sure how I'm going to...

Well it has really been some time since I last posted in this forum. My tractor (1979 L245DT) has been running great for quite some time. Last I used it was about a month ago. I was pushing dirt around the yard, not pushing much really. I was just letting it run for a bit while digging by...

Sold already. Dang. Looking at a loader off of a Deutz Allis right now. It will fit my L245DT. Tractor was burnt, so all the hydraulics will need replacing. Owner wants $600. Seems like a lot considering the work entailed. Opinions of others would be appreciated. Sent from my Nexus S using...

Ok I have finally reached the owner and he informs me that the tractor is a B7100. Its general condition in the pictures appears quite good, however he tells me that it will not move forward or reverse. There is a bit of a language barrier so I haven't gotten much more out of him than that...

Im looking at a little Kubota that has a "Kubota 85" loader on it. Does any have a good guess at what size tractor it would fit. From the pic it looks to be in the 15-20 hp range. I have been attempting to reach the seller but without luck so far. Anyone?

I just recently completed a bunch of work on my L245DT, including the head gasket. It was not to bad a job, and I'm a novice in this area as well. Get yourself the shop manual, and parts manual if you can, as they will be a big help. When you take your head off just take it to a machinist sol...

Hello All. It's been a while since I've posted in the forums. My little 245DT if running strong these days. Thanks to all who helped with advice and pointers throughout my repairs. I have a new project in mind now. A loader. I have a chance to but a complete new loader from a contact I made...

Well although going backwards is not ideal for long periods of time I have found that it does clear the snow from the banks much better. If I go down the lane way twice (down and then back up) fairly close to the middle, just to get the snow over to the sides, and then do down and back up...

Will do at first chance. Sent from my Nexus S using Tapatalk

So we finally had our first 'real' snowfall yesterday. It wasn't a substantial amount and it was pretty wet snow so I used my 5' rear blade instead of the old blower I bought this summer. Its my first winter with the tractor and it seems that it takes some practice to do a good job. My...

Success! Ok, after finally solving the starter issue, and "jimmy-ing" up the wiring I finally got to start the tractor today. Initial problem was air in the fuel lines at the injectors. Not a huge deal, and it was solved easily. When it finally started there was an awful lot of smoke...

So I got to thinking what the heck those little balls/filings could be. I remember the guy saying that he would glass bead the body. On further inspection of the filings that is definitely what they were. I guess he did a crap job cleaning it out before reassembly because they had all...

Ok looking for a bit more help here. I attempted to take the starter back to the guy who rebuilt it for me. He has closed shop due to health issues. Grrrrr :mad: So my father-in-law and I took the thing apart to have a look. It seemed as though the armature was siezed inside the housing...

Battery is brand new but I checked it any way......good. Connections are good....also new. Taking it back in to shop. So annoying. I've been working on this tractor for so long, to have it not work because of something like this is just the icing on the cake.thanks for the replies. Sent from my...

I have just rewired my tractor. I have the original starter which I had rebuilt. I can here the starter engaging when I attempt to start but the engine will not turn over. I removed the starter and put power to it. The little gear moves forward as to engage the fly wheel but it does not spin. Am...
