    Kubota B and BX series salvage yard

    I am not sure @Mountainman is in business anymore, he hasn't been online since January, I submitted a request on his website and haven't heard from him. Hope he is ok!!

    I'm confident I have Gelled Fuel

    If you are not using it till spring just leave it be, gelled fuel is only a problem when you try to flow it through a filter.

    Electronic torque wrenches ... are they worth the cost?

    $100 is the new $20 as I like to say o_O Although 2 for that price I think is fair for the quality that you are getting, Just 1 of those in snap on is probably $400-500

    Electronic torque wrenches ... are they worth the cost?

    I am a diesel tech by trade, I have the latest Snap On Techangle 3/8 and 1/2" torque wrenches. I honestly don't really care for them, they are not the most user friendly tool out there. I bought the very first snap on electronic torque wrenches when I was in college in 2005. I still have the...

    Cold weather run issue

    Keeping the fuel warm is the only real effective way to prevent the fuel from becoming a white goo. My BX gets parked in an unheated shed. Once it gets into the single digits I start adding Kerosene to the tank, I add a gallon of kerosene for every 2 of diesel. Most of the municipalities in...

    BX 2380 fuel system wiring

    See pic below for the fuse you are asking about, but..., If this fuse is blown, then the key switch should be completely dead, no dash, lights, or anything else, is that the problem you have or just the fuel pump not running?

    Removing Rear Axle Cover on a BX24D

    As someone who has done this professionally for over 20 years, I can say those are more "Guidelines" than actual rules :ROFLMAO:

    Removing Rear Axle Cover on a BX24D

    Unless you are really ambitious, I think I would get your axle shaft seal and bearings replaced and then reassess how bad the case leak really is. All you need to do to remove the axle and seal is to remove the wheel. Work the seal out with a flat blade screw driver, then you can get a set of 90...

    Can you clarify what part you are referring to? If its #10 in this pic the transmission needs to come out

    A Fire A Day

    Most of the house fires in our area come from people running electric space heaters on extension cords or power strips. There are not as many people burning wood as their used to be around here, and of the people that burn wood, I would say over half have outdoor boilers.

    Vehicle windshield wiper blades?

    I have had good luck with the Ford Motorcraft beam blades, for winter on my F150 I run these heated beam blades Heated wiper blades I came upon the heated blades when Freightliner and western star started offering them from the factory for municipal plow trucks, they are expensive but...

    BX 1880 VS Gr2120

    That rumor was started when John deere bought a Murray plant to build their smaller riding mowers. People sort of assumed they were just rebadged murrays. John deere builds their bigger garden tractors in Horicon Wisconsin at the same plant where they built their very first 110 garden tractor in...

    RIP Ford F150e (long live the F150)

    Ford has a big problem in that the plant that stamps all of their aluminum body panels caught fire, super duty and f150 production is probably going to take a hit because of this. It sounds like they are allocating what they can get to the models that have the most volume, definitely not EV's...

    BX 1880 VS Gr2120

    The deere x-series doesn't really compare to anything Kubota makes, it has all of the best features from the BX and the GR. It really fills a spot directly between the 2. I have owned alot of Deere product in my life and the X-series has been the Cadillac of garden tractors for a long time. It...
