Kubota ZG227 Engine-348 hours.

[jgarrett]

I bought this Kubota ZG227 new back in 2011, last year I noticed it was dirty and there was oil coming from SOMEWHERE?? I took it into the dealer and they couldn't find where it was leaking without pulling the engine and tearing it down which was about 1/2 the cost of a new engine ($3000) so I opted for a new engine. They "thought" it might have a hairline crack or gasket leaking from somewhere, it's not enough to make it "use oil" but it's enough to make a mess. It runs great and starts right up. It's had the oil changed every Spring (about 40 hours per year) and runs like a champ. Look at the pics carefully as this is exactly what you will be getting. I using the stand the new motor came with and will use that to ship through Fastenal "STORE TO STORE SHIPPING ONLY! If you want to arrange you own shipping (after payment) that's fine I have a forklift and will gladly assist in any way I can. One more time, AS IS! NO RETURNS! Mower serial number 50111
When I parked after mowing (about 1-1/2 hours) there would be a spot under the mower the next day where about 10-15 drops of oil came out. It never did go down on the dipstick enough to add oil. They (Kubota dealer) thought if they could find the leak they could fix it with JB Weld? No promises though. I am calling the shipping $200 for now but if you contact me I will call Fastenal and find out exactly what it would cost.
Thanks for looking...
