I bought my Kubota generator at the same time I bought my tractor, an L5030 back in 2005.
The generator has few hours, it is for back up only and mostly only runs 4 times a year when I exercise it for an hour.
I was very annoyed to find an oil leak after the last run....puddle of oil under it and it appears to be coming from the fuel injector pump where it bolts to the crankcase....I assume it's a gear driven pump.
My dealer is trying to help.....says they don't work on the generators and don't have much info.....good grief! but he is trying to get a manual for me so I can have parts info before I disassemble and replace gaskets....or what ever.
This is a GL-6500S Low Boy with a two cylinder ZB600-GL-S diesel engine.
Does anyone have one or a similar machine? Hard to believe an oil leak on a like new machine....bought new in '05 and has run less than 100 hours.
I sure would appreciate any comments or tips on pulling that fuel pump off, which will be after removing the coolant recovery tank and battery just to make enough room to get to it.
