    1989 b8200 block heater question

    The block heater works amazing. When it is plugged in tractor starts up almost immediately. Normally the tractor wants me to use the glow plugs for 5 to 7 seconds. Even when I park it in a heated garage that is roughly 50°F., I still have to use the glow plugs. does anyone know why it behaves...

    Finished getting tach running today. Had to remove the radiator to be able to swap out the part. I needed to drain the coolant anyway. Working like a champ.

    Hot shot secret diesel extreme

    Thanks. Right now it’s not hard to start. 6 to 7 seconds of glow plug usage when cold. I plan to move snow with it this winter. I have used the block heater on it. Works amazingly well. Right now my area is around 32 degrees F.

    I guess the question becomes what to look out for to get the top end done?

    Hot shot secret diesel extreme

    Honestly I don’t think it’s bad. It doesn’t act like it’s lost power. My local dealer said just run it and put the machine back to work.

    Hot shot secret diesel extreme

    Hi All, I wanted to see if any folks have experience with diesel extreme and striction remover to address blow by. I bought a B8200 HST 4wd recently and I am working through many maintenance items the previous owner didn’t do. You can see the blow by coming out of the valve cover breather tube...

    Front Tires for B8200 Hst 4wd

    Thanks so much. I got them and they are put on. I had my kubota dealer mount them on the rims. They said if I need get any more tires for those rims please go someplace else. :) They had a hell of a time. Bottom line they were helpful and got them on the rims for me. Onto the next repair item.

    It is the hst. That seems to be running fine. I am just trying to go through the machine and make sure everything is working. I spent 4 hours getting the 3 point arms working. The were rusted and didn’t swing from side to side at all. The 3 pt adjustment handle also wasn’t turning. Works like...

    I have the shop manual, but I have not found the instructions to replace this piece. It looks straight forward. The bottom picture is the lower radiator hose. Tomorrow I find out if Kubota got the right part when I pick it up.

    Thanks!!! It took a bit to get the loader off. I doubt it had been removed for years. I have the new tach hour meter gear housing for the front of the engine. Replacing that next week. Have to drain the coolant and pull lower radiator hose to fix that.

    I spent the time and removed the loader to make the maintenance easier. Non one had a guess at the hours. I did try the cable first. That wasn’t it. I have the part just have not put it on yet. The hour meter gear housing on the front of the engine. That is next weeks project.

    Hi All, I bought this machine a couple of months ago. I am seeing exhaust come out of the breather tube. I have seen several posts about using MMO to unstick rings. For this tractor, it’s not burning any oil. I have changed oil and filters what is obvious to me is this machine was not...
