It's possible the idle is set too low. There was an intermediate owner before I bought it back and he maintained it but wasn't big on what I would consider proper repairs. The tach cable was gone when I got it back from him but I'd say it has somewhere between 2000 & 2500 hours on it. All engine...

Hey guys, I'm finally starting down what will probably be a years long road of restoring my grandfather's L175 to 1973 condition-- which will probably lead to a lot more questions as I go. Today my question is about the injection pump. Whenever you are working the tractor hard and suddenly let...

The size isn't so much the issue as it is finding something that resembles the original look. Also, from what I read it calls for 8.4-24 on the back. Will 8.3-24 work?

Thanks!

I've been looking all over online for some rear ag tires and I can't find anything that is exactly the right size. I see some that appear to have tires pretty close to the original ones on them. Does anyone know where I might be able to get them? I'm no tire expert so if another tire size might...

Thanks guys! I've emailed several places I've found online. We'll see what comes of it.

Does anyone know of a good Kubota salvage yard? I live near West Kentucky Tractor Parts and they were fantastic but they've closed down now. I'm specifically looking for an original style steering wheel for my L175 and also will need new dash sheet metal. If anyone can point me in the right...

I did and I saw a diagram for an L260 and a L225 I believe but nothing for an L175

It's for an L175 and I need a wiring diagram

I see they have WSM manuals on there. Anyone have any reviews of those?

I'm not sure what OST stands for but I heard it on here when I was asking about wiring diagrams

I'm having trouble finding them online or even for sale. Any tips? Thanks!

I have the I&T Shop Manual for it, which doesn't actually have a diagram for the L275 in it. The issue I'm having is the previous owner cut and spliced the wiring as needed to put a new over the counter switch or whatever on instead of the proper replacements. As a result it has problems...

Does anyone have a wiring diagram for a 73 model L275? I can't find one that I feel is reliable anywhere- including in the shop manual. Thanks!

If I have to rebuild the engine, what all will it need? I feel like new sleeves, pistons, rings, and gaskets I can do myself.
