Probably still has debris in the fuel tank. I'd... Check the first filter (PITA) first visually, is it 'white' or 'black' looking. Black typically means fuel contamination. Then I'd.... Pinch fuel line, disconnect from the filter and drain in to a jar. Steady flow? Clean? Other possibility is...

Big blue barrel? Awfully flexible plastic. I might suggest (ignore if you like!) that you bore a hole in the BOTTOM of the barrel on the opposite end of the fill hole. You can then use a deep socket with a stupid long extension to attach the nut ( @jimh406 has a good idea for dropping the...

Once, putting my BH back on, I did not fully engage one of the hose couplers. Assuming it was right, I fired up the tractor and attempted to get the BH on. No Bueno. After a few minutes, I discovered my 'oppssie' and had to release line pressure. After I resolved it, the BH functions returned...

Damn man! You are always having issues with your balls. Perhaps you ought to get them fixed? Yeah... any collar that works like that, it seems the direction of pull is always opposite the direction of connection, so as you pull the collar, you also pull it out of alignment of just off...

Remember when... cars had just a rubber mat (no carpet) and it was common to take the mat out and hose out the interior?

Ditto. Basic wear items like belts, filters, oil, grease, always stocked. When a new machine is acquired, so is the 'fast moving' stock servicing parts. When a part is used or supply low, I re-stock. Not a lot worse than half way through a job late on a Saturday and now you have to wait at least...

My phone sits in my office unless I leave the house. All devices that can, are put to 'sleep' at 9 pm. No phone in the bedroom. The only EMF I experience is the electricity coursing through the wires in the walls (yes, I can hear 60 Hz.) and I'm used to constant hummmm Used to be weird during a...

I'd retain the filter after the pump. When my 'pre-filter' clogged the first time, I changed both. I cut open the 'pre-filter' and it was clogged crusty, the after filter was clean. But I'd not want to risk a injector issue and that second filter is really easy to change, so I'd leave it. As far...

Ah, sorry for mis-understanding. While I've not used one, the local power company does and it is a fully articulated chain saw type. They also have a very stout cage around the operator and video cameras mounted at the saw so he can fully see the cut. The operator told me they have a 'power...

As an aside, if I died and no one knew, would I care? Probably not. I'd not want to die at home with my wife there. Having to deal with dead me, the police investigating, makes for a very lousy day. I'd rather get ill and be at the hospital and die, if my wife was around. Alone? Does a tree...

Yikes! Today, I was prepping the area for grass seed and I found another cut off about 1/2" below ground top. I dug down to the top of the cement. Chained it, had the wife guide me so a vertical pull could be done and nothing. Rear of the little BX came up in the air. I stood with my feet in a...

The OEM does not do the financing. They 'might' have a company named 'Kubota Finance' that is really owned by "Household Finance' or 'GE Financial'. Cars are the same. The loan is not 'Made in Japan';. When a vehicle contract is sold to the financing arm and is a zero rate loan, the OEM provides...

Gear box mounting bolts may of been too low a grade or loose, letting the box bang about. Those washers should not be cupped like that (signs of over tightening) either, All points to assembly errors. You'll need to get the gear box off and a left handed drill bit to remove the bolt shanks. If...
