I recently purchased an L245 Kubota. The previous owner stated that the tractor had sat under a shed for 8-10 years. Brought it home and completed the normal maintenance, oil, hydraulics, fuel, filter, etc. The fuel did have a little water in it but not more than to be expected. the tractor starts, runs pretty good, and does not appear to be down on power.
The issue it has this, idle to full throttle, no problem, full or even half throttle to idle, it will start sputtering and dump tons of black and dark blue smoke out the tailpipe. The only way to clear this up is to pull the throttle wide open and close it very slowly. Then all appears well until you throttle down again.
I am new to the forum and was wondering if anyone has encountered an issue like this before?
Thanks for any advice
