    The time had come

    The EuroGrip tires look great and also a great price. They should last you a long time. I replaced all four of mine a couple of months ago. I went back with Titan Trac Loader II. The originals still had good tread, but were cracking and getting dry rotted. BTW....your property looks nice...

    Yet another Rotella question

    You stated you purchased a new LX2620 earlier this year. All of the oil brands mentioned above are great choices; however, I wonder if using an oil other than the manufacturer's recommendation could jeopardize your warranty. Just a thought.

    Wixcool 24056

    Thanks for the comments. I did use the Kubota ELC 50/50 prediluted coolant. I think I'll skip the addition of the SCA and just go with coolant only.

    Wixcool 24056

    I recently flushed and changed the coolant in my L3940 and used the pre-mix Kubota coolant. I'm assuming it has the additives already added.

    Wixcool 24056

    Anyone ever use a product called Wixcool 24056? A mechanic friend of mine recommended adding it to the cooling system for diesel engines. Thank you.

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    I flushed and changed the coolant in my L3940. The drain plug is plastic and I was afraid it would snap off. I noticed during the flushes that it leaked a little around the drain plug. When I went back with the drain plug for the final time, I put several wraps of teflon tape and some sealant...

    Tire Availability

    I've been looking to replace the Titan R4 tires on my L3940. The fronts are 10-16.5 and the rears are 17.5L-24. My local Kubota dealer does not sell tires so I checked with the local tire dealer. My preference is to stay with Titan tires but the tire dealer is telling me that his distributors...

    Get rid of yellow jacket nest above ground?

    Use either Tempo SC or Tirade SC (same active ingredient). It's not an immediate knock down chemical but will kill the yellow jackets or any other wasps.

    HST Filter Removal

    I just changed the oil and all filters on my L3940 HST. I used a large oil filter wrench shaped kind of like channel locks to take them off. I go back with hand tighten though. One tip....if you change the hydraulic filter, use the shop vac method (stick shop vac hose in hydraulic oil fill...

    L3940 Fuel Sensor

    Thanks PoTreeBoy for the help. I checked the gauged and it was fine so I checked the ground at the sensor. That's what turned out to be the problem. I made a jumper wire and grounded the sensor to the frame and now the fuel gauge seems to be working properly. Thanks again for the help!

    L3940 Fuel Sensor

    I have a 2007 L3940 HST. The fuel gauge hasn't registered correctly for quite some time. It only registers at 1/4 full regardless of the fuel level. Recently, I had to replace the battery so I decided to also pull the fuel sensor and check it. It was a little corroded but the float and...

    Pole barn construction

    Thank you for the very detailed information. It's obvious you have a lot of experience in constructing pole barns. I had a pole barn built on my property a couple of years ago. I looked at various contractor websites to get ideas. I really liked Wicks buildings and the design tool they...
