Thank you, I PM'd you!

torch, do you still have blocks available? I need one for my L345, however, I only need the pressure and return on one side (facing outward toward the wheel).

Well, my fix almost made it one year! We had a massive snowstorm, and I was using the loader to move snow, and all of a sudden, I heard loud banging, and the loader stopped working. I dug into it, and where I had drilled the shaft it snapped. So, I began the hunt for a new pump. The link is...

Just a quick update. Instead of replacing everything, I drilled through the coupler and pump shafts and put a bolt in place. It's a temporary fix until I can get something more permanent, but I needed to be going again so that I can move snow from our never-ending winter.

The crank side is fine, the pump end is the one that's stripped out. It's rusted on, so I am going to have to remove the whole adapter to get it out.

Here are some pics. The lighting isn't great, it was in my barn. Also, don't mind the coolant, the drain valve leaks a little, and is a PITA. The last two pics are the pump shaft, and the mount that had apparently been broken for quite a while. https://imgur.com/a/7OSm2

Thanks for the info! I got the pump off, and not only do I need a new pump, but I need the shaft coming from the crankshaft adapter that goes to the pump. The pump shaft was completely stripped out. I supposed after 33 years, it finally gave up the ghost. Any idea on where to find that shaft...

I got in touch with them, thanks for the info!

I have a L345DT with loader, and the pump failed on me yesterday while moving snow. I know that these FELs were usually made independently, and I know that I am going to have trouble finding a pump and parts for the pump. (the image is the pump style). Would I be able to run the FEL off of the...

Would it be cheaper just to buy new injectors? Messick's has them for $65/each, what would a shop charge to service them? I am also very rural, so anything I need done would have to be shipped back and forth. What to you mean re-line? I know that sometimes the hard lines leak, but when we'd...

Just a quick update on the fuel situation. I did the injector bleed, but I think that I will need to blow out all four lines. One line would pump fuel, but it also had a lot of small bubbles with it. Two of the lines pumped fuel very well after the second cranking. Then, one line pumped well...

I'll do that, thanks D2Cat. Yeah, the junk in the line had me concerned, this poor thing lead a VERY hard life before I got it. I do use Optilube XPD in every tank of fuel, it really helps with lubrication and cold weather. I put on a new fuel filter last year, and I'll be changing it this...

Do I do 1 injector at a time? Or all four, and just tighten each line as fuel comes out?

I bled the line at the filter and pump, do I need to bleed it at the injector?

I have been using my L345DT to till up about 3 acres of ground. I have a 6ft tiller, and until recently, it seemed to be working alright. The first pass was about medium depth, and I had no issues with the tractor at all. For the second pass, I have the tiller on the last bolt hole "lowest"...

Thanks for the help everyone! I did get a hold of the resident tractor guy, and while he had never worked on a Kubota before, he took on the challenge and got everything squared away. There were two gears in the PTO (low speed), that were shot, and he replaced those as well as my clutch. The...

Finally have my tractor back, and I'm in heaven! After needing two gears in the PTO, and a new clutch, the beast is back in service! The first thing I did was hook up the tiller and get to work. This thing is awesome! I went with a 6" tiller from Tractor Supply, it is a County Line model...

The reverse rotation creates a better seed bed or surface. BUT, if you're area is hard soil, with large rocks, roots, etc... My ground is quite hard due to the soil type, and I do have a lot of rocks in it. As a matter of fact, we are at the top of a hill, and it's nicknamed rock hill. This...

I thought about using a plow/disc, but the fields are all just around one acre (three of them), and by the time that I buy a plow and disc, I will have spent more than the cost of a tiller (unless I buy used, and even then it's comparable to a new tiller) I'm alright with multiple passes, and...

I did a quick search, and I couldn't find anything on this. I am in the market for a tiller, and at one time I had found a brand that is changeable from reverse to forward tilling. I am looking for this because I will be breaking new ground, and I have learned that a forward till is better for...
