Did you disturb any of the hydraulics when doing the swap? Are you sure the hydraulics aren't deadheading stalling the engine? Maybe a solenoid valve or something left disconnected? Hoses reversed maybe? I would assume there would be test ports for a pressure gage that might be helpful.

I pulled the engine on my BX22 to replace front and rear main seals. I have a few pictures but nothing that I would think would be helpful. I mostly just took pictures showing various views of everything that needed removed or disconnected so there were no questions when going back together...

It's easy to over tighten and damage JIC fittings. One that size is probably hand tight plus one flat of the hex. If it leaks, give it a little more. The picture had me confused too. The bottom one looks like the old one with orange paint on it.

I've used on my M7060. It works.

I replaced them on my 21. One of mine popped of the ball stud and I was able to zip tie it back on to get me by until I got new ones. As I recall they are threaded studs on both ends. Pretty easy to replace.

The Davis shows 3.95" for the year here (NE Wyo). Doesn't count snow of which we had very little of. May here looked like August. The only thing green is what we water. Horrible fire season, but we've been lucky here so far.

I thought about noting that but didn't think it would be necessary. A bit of a different scenario I would say. (as in not in the filtered stream of flow) I see you edited as I was replying. Agree.

I believe this would be the first time I've seen a magnet in filtered oil flow. I think it would be preferred pre filter.

I'm failing to understand this. In an ordinary filter application oil flows from the outside of the filter element to the inside and exits the center hole. In this case past the magnet. Is the flow reversed in this application? How is this magnet "shared" when it is only in the inlet or output...

You can check the TSB and see if your 7060 S/N falls in affected range. Hope that's not your problem but suspect that it is. I briefly contemplated the backhoe attachment for my 7060 but figured it would be to inconvenient to operate. I have a BX with the backhoe but if I have something beyond...

Not a Kubota backhoe then? Attached is the PSB on the injector issue.

I believe WhiteTiger suggested it may be the known injector issue and I would agree it's likely the culprit, but I also don't know what effect your broken draft control could have, so I would get that fixed first to eliminate that possibility. You have learned the hard way why 3-point backhoes...

If the 900 is like my X2 it already has a starter relay under the seat, and there is also only one safety switch in the circuit. That is a great mod for tractors and mowers with multiple safety switches causing voltage drop. I have done that to a BX and a ZD.

Testing wire integrity with a test light is MUCH better than a resistance test. It can also help you locate a broken wire or intermittent connection by connecting the test light and then wiggling the harness while watching the light.

That's exactly how we used to fix coal mine haul trucks. When I was cleaning out my toolbox at retirement and going through my saved prints I ran across a print of the bushing we made. The tapered holes were bored out onsite and the bushing installed with an interference fit. A larger washer was...
