Thanks for the info and education…. I appreciate the feedback.

The block heater works amazing. When it is plugged in tractor starts up almost immediately. Normally the tractor wants me to use the glow plugs for 5 to 7 seconds. Even when I park it in a heated garage that is roughly 50°F., I still have to use the glow plugs. does anyone know why it behaves...

Finished getting tach running today. Had to remove the radiator to be able to swap out the part. I needed to drain the coolant anyway. Working like a champ.

Thanks. Right now it’s not hard to start. 6 to 7 seconds of glow plug usage when cold. I plan to move snow with it this winter. I have used the block heater on it. Works amazingly well. Right now my area is around 32 degrees F.

I guess the question becomes what to look out for to get the top end done?

Honestly I don’t think it’s bad. It doesn’t act like it’s lost power. My local dealer said just run it and put the machine back to work.

Thanks for the feedback.

Lol.

Thanks for the feedback.

Hi All, I wanted to see if any folks have experience with diesel extreme and striction remover to address blow by. I bought a B8200 HST 4wd recently and I am working through many maintenance items the previous owner didn’t do. You can see the blow by coming out of the valve cover breather tube...

Thanks so much. I got them and they are put on. I had my kubota dealer mount them on the rims. They said if I need get any more tires for those rims please go someplace else. :) They had a hell of a time. Bottom line they were helpful and got them on the rims for me. Onto the next repair item.

Kubota udt2 is what I used.

It is the hst. That seems to be running fine. I am just trying to go through the machine and make sure everything is working. I spent 4 hours getting the 3 point arms working. The were rusted and didn’t swing from side to side at all. The 3 pt adjustment handle also wasn’t turning. Works like...

I have the shop manual, but I have not found the instructions to replace this piece. It looks straight forward. The bottom picture is the lower radiator hose. Tomorrow I find out if Kubota got the right part when I pick it up.

Thanks!!! It took a bit to get the loader off. I doubt it had been removed for years. I have the new tach hour meter gear housing for the front of the engine. Replacing that next week. Have to drain the coolant and pull lower radiator hose to fix that.
