Help me out, Kubota gurus;
Bought a block heater for my 2003 L3430 GST, but I guess I got the wrong one. Part I got is 70000-73595. It is the type that pushes in with O ring seal. Instructions say to instal on front of cyl. head, but not possible because water pump is in the way. I knocked out the middle freeze plug on the block, no room for the heater element to fit inside.
So- what do I need- one of the type that threads into a sleeve, which itself is a push fit into the freeze block hole? Other possibilities? Got a part number?
Thanks- Jeff G
