I have contacted Setrab to see if they have an oil filter adapter and filter base with larger inlet and outlet holes. Will try to check the fittings tomorrow to check for possible restrictions. Will try to just remove the remote filter and move it closer to see what happens. I would take photos...

Engine power a generator. Did not have any way to know what the original oil temp was because it did not have a gauge. Kind of hard to run the plumbing backwards because the oil filter adapter is marked IN and OUT, the fittings in the adapter are 1/2". The remote oil filter is marked as well...

I am hoping someone can give me a few pointers regarding the very hot oil in a Z482. I have contacted Kubota, Onan and anyone that anyone has suggested with no assistance. In an attempt to resolve the nasty and lengthy process of changing the oil and filter, I installed a spin on filter base...

What type of engine does it have? Horizontal or vertical? I looked for photos of these tractors and particular engines but was unsuccessful Thanks

Well I guess that means you don't know. If you read the entire thread it discussed remote filter and Kubota Z482 engines. You must be unaware that the engine in the T-1600 is actually a Z482, therefore, maybe my post should have been more precise in order that you could understand it and no...

Does anyone know if the Kubota T-1600 has a low oil pressure shut off switch?

Don't know what my problem is. On my Z482, 67mm bore 2 cylinder diesel engine, I replaced the spin on filter with a Dereale spin on filter adapter. I connected this adapter to a larger full flow filter at the remote filter base. I filled the oil pan to the required amount, and the remote...

Yes the little engine has a low oil and high coolant switches. I believe the first 2 times it shut down was low oil because when additional oil was added it started and ran long enough to determine the oil was still low. Since opening the system and discovering the oil filter and lines were...

Well here I am all dressed up and no where to go! Finally got the plumbing complete but am unclear and somewhat confused. Here is my issue, Kubota Z482 running a Wix 51064 oil filter with the desire to convert to a remote oil filter. Ordered a Derale remote oil filter kit which contained the...

Over the last several days or weeks, I have been soliciting info on a couple of Kubota engines, EA-300 and Z482. The EA300 was provided by Kubota where it was modified to power a generator to include remote water pump, remote fuel filter and remote oil filter. The Z482 was provided by Kubota...

I don't remember where or how I learned but I seem to remember that this gen 5,500 quiet diesel, must turn at 3,600 to produce current and is turned by a serpentine belt with the engine running 2,400. I believe it is also computer controlled to increase rpm as the load increases. Thanks

I know what you are talking about. I went to my local tractor dealer and they alleged to not even know Kubota made a 2 cylinder diesel. While I have read the many postings, I have contacted Kubota and Cummins as well and they seem to be unable to prove a definate answer to how hot these little...

I am wondering if anyone knows in what machines was the Z482 placed? Currently have an Onan gen with a Z482-ES06 engine. I found this identification on a peel off sticker. I don’t know what number if any is stamped into the engine as it is completely enclosed. Also, don’t know what the ES06...

Like the idea about a themo switch. How did you wire it up? Where did the sending unit connect? At what temp did it engage and disengage? Interesting

Thanks for the info and please allow me to bring you up to date after your info. The engine in this Onan gen is a Z482 Kubota 2 cylinder diesel. I called Kubota to ask what the oil filter requirement and was shocked at the answer. After providing a serial number, I was told that the info on...

Got an Onan gen with a Kubota 2 cyl Z482 engine that is extremely difficult to remove the oil filer Wix 51064, therefore, I would like to install a Dereal remote oil filter similar to the remote oil filter on a 1 cyl Kubota EA-300 engine. I would like to increase the oil capacity by installing...
