CBD OIL, and she'll burr like a kitten!

25+ year old Kubota's don't have emissions labels on the valve cover (never did). And even with the engine serial number it's not going to tell you the year it was sold. And the year it was sold is the tractor year, not the year it was actually made. Tractor years are irrelevant for anything...

You have a bad connection or cable, remove the connections on the battery or the starter and clean and reconnect, same with the battery side/ If the battery cables look odd or fat (swelled) up under the insulation it's a bad cable.

Simply use UDT in the steering.

Forget the timing cover or marks on the flywheel, it's a waste of time. Pull the valve cover, not which vales are intake and which valves are exhaust (they will be inline with the ports). Turn the engine until one valve is open (you'll be able to see it) then set the other to .007. You can also...

Rule out a mechanical issue with the steering, jack up the front end and see if it turns easily in both directions. The power steering controller for that model is obsolete and repair replacement parts are going to be near to impossible to get a hold of.

You will need to drop the frame to remove the bolt.

You could use shrink wrap.

Deep breaths and everything will be fine. ;) You don't want to mess with the front as that part is aluminum and very brittle. Instead of having a machine shop make an adapter for the freeze plug just take the tractor over there and have them drill and tap the head, would take them about 15 min...

There is a adapter already made that is for a block heater that might work for you. It's not the best place to put a temp sensor, as the head is where the highest heat is at and the optimal location for the sensor. Just so you know, there is little to no room behind the freeze plug so do not...

Yes and no, or I should say some of them are and some of them are done that way for that purpose. The main reason is for the ease of assembly as the parts that mate together are not all exactly the same, thus requiring them to be slotted or have oversized holes.

Yes some do.

EWWWW, that does not sound good. How does the clutch pedal feel? I'm thinking clutch disk splines? Try the same movements, but slip the clutch while doing it. See if the noise changes.

#1 You should never leave a loader up in the air! #2 It's under warranty, call the dealer! #3 Get the WSM (aka Service manual) and go through the testing and adjustment procedure for the loader control.

There is a flat spot on the head right side (intake side) rear, but it might not be drilled and tapped for a sensor. That is a thermo siphon system, no water pump, so it doesn't move a lot of water. Adding a bung/ boss to the radiator will only semi work, there is a likely chance that it will...
