I had a Bayliner 17' bow rider boat. Long gone now. It had the marine version of the Ford Pinto 4 cylinder overhead cam engine. 2.3 Liter if I recall correctly. Marine duty is way more brutal on an engine than tractor usage. If I ran that 2.3 Liter wide open traveling on one of New York State...

I tried a Milwaukee battery powered high pressure grease gun yesterday. The stiff hinges on one door are noticeably better, but there is plenty of room for improvement. I was visiting a friend of mine several days ago, he's a retired DOT heavy equipment mechanic. He told me if the battery...

Back when I repaired cars/trucks professionally, speedometers were still cable driven. When the speedometer needle wiggled/jumped, you reached up under the dashboard and disconnected the speedometer cable from the back of the speedometer. Then with a pair of needle nose, you pulled the...

Unless you are a VERY gifted electronics repair technician, there aren't any serviceable parts inside the instrument cluster other than some incandescent bulbs for cluster illumination & warning lights. The BX 2360 instrument clusters are obsolete, and have been replaced with newer part...

I am likely long past the time where the container seller/installer will do anything for the stiff hinges.

I am not really sure if it is a hinge alignment problem, or not. It doesn't appear bent/twisted. I can say when drilling through the hinge body and the hinge pin, there isn't any type of lubricant in there. Just some dry black dust. Until grease flows out of every hinge pivot point, I'm calling...

I have been "fighting" with the hinges on my shipping container entry doors since I purchased it. The day it was delivered at the remote property, the hauler/installer got stuck in traffic accident bumper to bumper gridlock on I-81 and was delayed for arrival for multiple hours. The installer...

Thank You all for the faulty model clarification. I will pass the good news to the potential new owner!

I recall the L3901 HST tractors having many problems with the emissions systems/regens for this vintage and model. Particularly in cold climates, regen failures, and dealerships cannot repair effectively. I wouldn't personally have any interest in this machine, but a coworker bought a new to...

I have the Bro-Tek rear and mid skid plates on my 2011 BX 25. (earlier version of BX 23S) Without a mid mount mower on my BX 25 (or your BX 23S) there just isn't much in the way of maintenance under the skid plates. Yes, they need to be removed for hydrostat fluid/filter changes and rear fuel...

I would like to know if the OP has any idea what caused that catastrophic failure. I own and use a BX 25 and a BX 2370. I would like to know what caused that failure (if the reason is known) so I don't repeat it. I'm guessing here, but it appears to be 540 PTO related. I do run a four foot...

I've used the Kubota BX 2370 several times for mowing at the house now, but it just isn't a workout for the machine with less than one acre. Yesterday, I caught a warm sunny day after a week + of monsoon rains and trailered the BX 2370 up to the recreational property. I filled the tractor with...

You just can't tell what you may find out behind a Kubota dealership. I was buying some repair parts for my BX and asked if they had a used front grill guard out back. In less than 5 minutes, the counter guy walked back in with a used takeoff. New, over $200. Initially, they were asking $175...
