This seemed to...

    Kubota B3030 Loses power randomly, quits then restarts just fine

    Test completed. I removed the wire and it stayed running ("then it's a "stop solenoid", run it with the wire off and see how it does"). After about 10 min. it did the same thing and lost power. Then I put the wire back on to start it and it ran just fine for 10 min or so. Then I pulled the...

    I am not sure how we would do this because it will go long stretches of time working just fine as normal, but then the problem occurs randomly.

    Well, we checked the HST switch, the stop solenoid, and the OCP and they seem to be working fine. Any other suggestions?

    Loss of Power, help please

    SOLUTION: 11-12-23 I EMPTIED THE TANK: 1. BLEW AIR INTO THE FUEL LINE FROM THE FUEL FILTER INTO THE TANK SO FUEL WOULD FLOW QUICKLY, 2. USED WET/DRY VACUUM TO REMOVE REMAINING FUEL & DEBRIS OUT OF TANK (USED NARROW TIP TOOL & MADE SURE CONNECTIONS WERE VERY TIGHT THROUGHOUT THE PROCESS, ALSO TRY...

    Loss of Power, help please

    Looks like I may need to clean out the gas tank. Do you happen to have step-by-step directions on how to remove the gas tank so I can clean it out? Appreciate any help.
