The alternator locked up and was not spinning while the tractor was running. Took it apart and the bearing toward the front was broke. Installed new bearing and remounted alternator. It will now spin freely but there is no voltage output. While it was apart the coils looked good. And the...

ALSO, can SUDT2 be used in the old B1550?

Where are some of the best places to get SUDT at the best price? Amazon is around $50 per gallon?

The manual for my Kubota B1550HST has a list of other brand of fluid to use and I chose Exxon Torque Fluid 56. It has been in there and change date is comining up. And need to change for the 3800HST. What quality and brand of oil is real good to use.

Which version of transmission is more popular for these 2 tractors?

Time to change the oil in my B1550. 800 hrs I have been using Rotella 15-40 conventionl oil. I am thinking about going to a full synthetic to extend oil change intervals. The manual sys to use CC or CD labeled oil. What do yall think? Thanks

I bought my L3800HST in Oct. 2012. What "cams" would it have? I need to edit my equipment list to the L3800HST and a B1550HST. Could the trouble be caused by the linkge cable not being set just right for engagement of the PTO? I do run a 5' rotary tiller on my 3800 but the tractor ought to...
