    B7200 hst no crank

    I have filled the fuel bowl in the past but it was very messy as the filter needs to be squashed a bit to get it in, and I have left it empty. Both seem to work! The fuel filter is OEM and is the correct part but it does seem to need its fins kinked a bit to get in the fuel bowl. I have...

    B7200 hst no crank

    Well, thank you ALL so much your helpful guidance and advice - ITS WORKING! I think it was a combination of things: battery not sufficienntly charged AND poor grounding/ cables. It turns out that the alternator has a slightly dodgy connection ( hence the poor battery charge) but now it’s all...

    I’ve polished up the ground connection and checked and tightens the battery clamps, all look good now. Waiting for battery to be fully charged.

    B7200 hst no crank

    Thank you for this. Charging the battery ( which is quite new ) and will try the ‘simply bypass everything’ approach. one question: I didn’t fill up the fuel bowl when I replaced the filter and wondered if that might cause crank issues. I don’t see any electrics connected to the fuel system (...

    B7200 hst no crank

    I have just been out and buffed and tightened all the battery cables. The battery is on charge ( just to make sure). I did replace the ignition switch last year as it was a bit flakey but checking that too ( no working headlights and glow indicator never has shown up as glowing ( don’t know...

    B7200 hst no crank

    Thanks for that suggestion. I have checked all the levers ( as I have felt foolishly caught out by that in the past) but everything seems as it should be and it was cranking only moments before when I had the engine stop out.

    B7200 hst no crank

    Hi everybody, I’ve got an old B7200 hst which, although doesnt get much work, usually works just fine. I decided to give it some new oil and change the filters. it was running fine before I started my service routine as I had warmed the engine up to change the oil. I was about to start it up...

    My speed has gone

    Hi again I think you might be right re the filters. The fuel is fine and the engine runs really well and the PTO doesn’t slow, but I change the transmission fluid a year ago and only changed the spin on filter ( didn’t realise there were other ones). I’d guess I’m gonna have to drain and check...

    My speed has gone

    One thing. I did do about 10 mins grass cutting at the high speed of PTO by mistake . Could this have caused some sort of damage?

    My speed has gone

    Hi Guys The tyres are fine and the engine runs up to speed but the hst pedal is pressed right to the floor and I’m crawling along. If I give it more gas it makes a bit of difference but this is not normal. I checked the transmission fluid level and it seems fine ( although so clear it’s hard to...

    Glowplug issues

    Hi All Got it sorted. Ended up replacing the key switch and the glow plug indicator, but the main problem was corrosion and broken leads. Some wires had come loose and some were so corroded that they wouldn’t work under load. Thanks for help with circuit diagrams, couldn’t have done it without...

    My speed has gone

    Hi All I got my ‘ol b7200 hst going again after the weather had corroded loads of electrics and whilst cutting grass I noticed my speed getting slower and slower. I finally had my foot hard down on the pedal and was hardly moving. I have no idea how the hst system really works but there is...

    Glowplug issues

    Hi guys I am a bit new to the forum and based in the UK where we don’t seem to have so many Kubota users and experts ( although I stand to be corrected). My B7200 HST D sits outside under a tarp all winter and this spring I went to start it and the glow plug light wasn’t coming on. It’s always...

    Thank you Wolfman Does that mean the regulator shown from eBay would not be suitable ?
