    L2501 losing power

    I disassembled and cleaned the cap. Power is still not back to normal. I will order yet another fuel filter and report back. I would appreciate any other ideas.

    L2501 losing power

    I checked the springs on the brake petals underneath the tractor. They looked fine to my untrained eyes. I put some diesel fuel stabilizer/injector cleaner in the fuel tank and changed the fuel filter. This resulted in improved power but not quite to normal. I am wondering if it might take a...

    L2501 losing power

The tractor's engine starts losing RPM in places it didn't before. I have changed the HST filter and air filter recently. I have a spare fuel filter and...

    L2501 engine oil change frequency?

    Howdy, I looked in my manual and it states 200 hour engine oil frequency. I have not got close to 200 hours since the last change. However, it has been almost a year since the last engine oil change. Do you think that I should change anyway just due to time? Thanks in advance, Hank

    Let's see pictures of your beautiful machines

    Here is our L2501 on the farm. I am a complete newbie so for you newbies, are you amazed at what a tractor can do? I am no longer a young man but with Ernie the Tractor (my wife's name for the tractor) I can still get a lot done.

    Thinking about getting a L2501.....thoughts

    We have an L2501 HST. It is used to help maintain a 65 acre tree farm. The tractor has done everything we have needed doing and done it well. It is amazing what you can get done with a tractor. I use a LandPride RCR60 bushhog. That is a 60". The tractor has no difficulty with it.

    bucket vs box blade vs blade

    I would go with the box blade. I would read some and watch some youtube before getting started. Remember to go easy with the box blade.

    Took delivery of my new 2017 L2501HST...

    My wife and I picked up our L2501 in December. We are very pleased and I am sure you will be also. I was initially leaning towards a Deere 3032e but a side by side comparison fixed that. We bought a LandPride RCR2060 with the tractor along with a disk harrow and box blade in a package. We...

    New L2501

    My wife and I own a 65 acre tree farm. Our L2501 is set up like yours and it has made life much easier. There is always something to use the tractor for. I have not found it under powered at all.

    Loading tractor with implements on trailer

    You will be happy to know that my local Big Tex dealer carefully explained why I wanted "feet" on my ramps. I hope others new to this might also profit from this wisdom. The Big Tex dealer also explained why I didn't want to park the bucket on the tongue of the trailer and then make a sharp turn...
