Alright guys, I'm at a loss. I have a Kubota M120 that the steel hydraulic delivery line (part #120 in the attached diagram)that runs from the rear end to the oil cooler snapped. Its a discontinued part, and no local hose place is able to make me something that will work (yet) because Kubota did...

Finally got a break here with no rain and some time to dig into it. Pulled the fuel separator off the tractor...and there was the problem. Tank side of the separator was completely blocked off with hornet carcasses. Cleaned it out, took off the motor side, blew everything out, removed the feed...

I'm assuming that's enough to overcome any air it could possibly be pulling? I'm more of a fix the root problem than find a work around type guy. Too many years of fixing redneck engineering of generations past.

I have an early 2000s m120 that started giving me fits last year. 2700 hours. Machine will bog down, go down to 100-200 rpm, and either spit sputter and puff black smoke and then come back to life, or die out. Does it under a load or without, however it seems to happen more after it's been put...

Did you ever figure out your issue? I'm having the same one. Engine drops to 100-200 rpm and either dies or comes back. Has done it turning on flat ground, discing down hill, discing up hill.

Dave, I'm having the same problem. My manual pump doesn't seem to work except occasionally. Sometimes I see bubbles coming out of it when I've used it after changing the separator O rings as I thought this was the problem. You think it's my hand pump, even though it's screwed shut?

I have an early M120, and tonight it repeatedly would not shut off with the key. I was chasing a different issue, where the engine smothers itself and almost stalls out when I'm pushing it hard(kick the clutch in, takes 5 seconds or so to come back to correct rpm) I cleaned sedimenter(ordering...

Jay, I'm running into the same issue, what fixed it?
