Changing to Rotella made no difference in the operating temp of my BX2350. I mowed yesterday in 85 degree weather and as usual the temp indicator on the tractor raced well above normal. As Big Bubba suggested, when I finished, I turned the tractor off and CAREFULLY removed the radiator cap. I immediately checked the water temp with a laser thermometer. Multiple reading showed it to be between 173 and 179 degrees--NORMAL, although the tractor instrument still showed it to be quite high.
Now I can run my tractor in peace without keeping one eye on the temp gauge. As sereral of you have stated, the Kubota instrumentation (temp, fuel, etc.) only offers a vague suggestion of the reality it is supposed to measure. Thanks again to all who advised on my first thread.
