I couldn't find the original post or I wouldn't opened others.

Won't start. What compression tester do I use? My automotive one won't work. The air cleaner isn't connected.

I had a thread last week about an L175 that I ran out of fuel and couldn't get it started. I bled the fuel system 3 times, installed new glow plugs and a new battery. Still won't start. Won't hit a lick. Busy fishing all week so got on it today, Saturday. Installed the new glow plugs, got...

Busy fishing all week so got on it today, Saturday. Installed the new glow plugs, got a new battery installed and it didn't hit a lick. Bled the fuel system again for the 4th time and nothing. The indicator on the glow plugs glows again so they're working. Put a jumper on the battery and it...

They arrive tomorrow, Tuesday, keep tuned.

Sounds like a plan, I'll order the glow plugs. Thanks.

Fail again. Fuel comes out of the bleeder above the pump in a steady stream. Loosened the lines into the injectors and cranked the engine; fuel comes out of them in spurts with no air that I could see. Tightened the lines, hooked up the glow plugs for 20 seconds and cranked the engine. It...

The glow plugs quit working so I had to spray ether into the intake the first time to start it. After it was warm it started easily. With the filter off the fuel runs out of the tank so I know it's getting there. I opened the bleed nut on the top of the pump and fuel ran out with no air. I...

It blew my finger off the injector holes. I added about a tablespoon full in total.

I finally got to work on the tractor today and failed. I filled the new filter and installed it, turned the fuel back on, loosened the bleed @ the top of the pump and got a steady stream from there with no cranking. Closed that and cracked the lines @ the injectors and cranked with the valve...

I have an old L175 that I ran out of fuel yesterday. I opened the bleed nut and cranked it and never got any fuel out. I squirted in some ether, with oil, into the intake and got a couple of bumps but it wouldn't start. Mosquitos were eating me up so I left it until morning. In the morning...

I changed my alternator to one with a built-in regulator and need the wiring diagram to hook it up. Is there a place where I can find it for free? Thanks

Alternator was on fire and burned the + terminal and wire. Is there any alternators that will fit the lower mount? I can rig an upper mount. How do I get the belt off with a hydraulic pump on the front of the engine and how long is the belt, number? The existing alternator is a Nippon Denso...

Found the problem and repaired it. The hydraulic piston that drives the 3 point hitch has a rubber O ring as piston rings. The O ring was broken. I called my local Kubota dealer and no go so I went to my local O ring supplier and bought one. I changed the oil while I was in it. The whole...

Thanks Jerry, It does go up so it's not restricted. Alex

I wrote a while back that my 3 point hitch won't stay up and need more help. I disconnected the bush hog and the arms have about 3 or 4" of free play at the ends. My 3 point hitch falls down if the lever isn't in the up position. I removed the 6 bolts, 2 nuts and the hydraulic line from the...

Russell, It's the first scenario. It doesn't hold up if I don't hold the lever in the up position. It falls down very quickly. I need to know how to repair it. Thanks.

Stumpy, How would I go about taking the valve apart/out? Is it on the lever that raises and lowers the hitch? Yes, I know about the knob on the round thing. Thanks.

Asked a question on Orangetractortalks.com. And then I'm going fishing.

I've been out of town and lost a thread about a L175 3 point hitch and my registration. My question is the level for the hydralic oil and what kind to put in. My 3 point hitch won't stay up if I don't keep the lever in the up position. In the hold it falls down. I think my fluid is low as...
