Nah, not paranoid. Sounds like your fuel pump is on the way out, OR there is a problem with the wiring. Some corrosion along the way will reduce the voltage available to the fuel pump, so it will run more slowly. If'n it were me, I'd check the voltage at the pump while the pump is engaged...

Their point isn't just wear resistance. Their claim is that the shape of the teeth is such that the wear will not ruin the cutting edge. Soil does wear, of course, but it does not wear just the bottom edge.

Well, you get extra credit on that one, I think! :giggle: Love the 'bag phone" line! :D

Here's the single most important thing you can know about grease (or engine oil) Use it. Cheap junk used regularly beats the best synthetic uber-super-duper-speciatly grease that sits in a tube in your shop.

Yes, I'm currently running a French drain and redoing my well supply line at the same time. I plan to bury some yellow CAUTION tape above it for that reason. Of course, I'm also putting the new well line about 4 feet down....

Electric lift pumps make re-priming a lot easier.

What is "tracer line"? A search on that didn't pull up anything that fits.

Corrosion somewhere. Try this - get a test light and try it on that same terminal. If it lights, measure the voltage. I'm betting it will be lower with the test light in place than without the test light.

My neighbor across the street is a retired lineman. He knows better. He still shredded my phone line (the pole is on his side of the street) while doing some cleanup of a drainage ditch. I razz him about it every time I get a chance, of course. :D Of course, part of the fault was Verizon's...

You either have a bad battery (most likely) or you have a bad connection somewhere. Corroded cable or connector. Just reading a voltage doesn't mean the battery is good.

I'm of the opinion that a filter upgrade is a good idea. https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=bx+fuel+filter+upgrade+

Now that piece of info was definitely worth the price of admission! (y) Thank you!

That's frustrating. I hate problems that 'solve' themselves, because you can't be sure they won't unsolve themselves, usually at the worst possible time.

Wow! Look at all those highly customized off the shelf parts! Sea Knights, eh? Cool. (y) I never got a ride on one of those. Just Hueys and Chinooks. But back to your circuit board. Looks to me like possibly a capacitor blew up. The question is, why? Before you put anything new in...

*sigh* No, they don't. They go to a catalog and pick an off-the-shelf display that meets their size requirements and they fit it to their board. That same display will be sold to hundreds of other companies. They would have to be brain-dead stupid to do otherwise.

I have seen many discussions on "wet-stacking" on other sites. Many have pointed out that big rigs routinely idle all night with no ill effects. (Well, they used to before the EPA got all excited about it.) I don't recall the specifics, but others have pointed out that idling diesels is...

Bad connections on either side, supply or ground, could do that, but you've checked for that. If you used a test light and not just a meter, I'd say it's time to roll that $120 dice.

If mine ever dies, I'll do that, instead of making the highly unlikely assumption that it is an uber-custom-made-to-order-never-to-be-duplicated part. Meanwhile, one of you who has a dead LCD could do that. The only obstacle you might run into is that it might be soldered onto the circuit...

It would be something on the order of a miracle if that company makes one special LCD that is ONLY used for Kubota. It's a very simple, generic LCD. There is no benefit to making it a specialized, custom part. If I wanted to take mine apart I could probably find a replacement in about 15...

Soil does not abrade only the lower surface.
