Need help with radiator blow out of Kubota

[andrewj]

I have a b7100 kubota that blew a chunk out of the top of the radiator. If I had to guess it looks like aluminum to me - shiny silver in color. Is this something I can fix? I called kubota and they want 370 for an aftermarket one! Any help appreciated. One more thing, it had been blowing off steam about 25 minutes into operation for hte last few months? what could this be a symptom of? the kubota guy said he didn't see a thermostat for this and he thought it might not have one.

As i see it, you have three options:
1. Ebay: Kubota B7200HST RADIATOR & CAP 67061-58730 B7100 B6200 | eBay
2. Tractor Junkyard - There are many
3. Local Radiator Shop - They may be able to rebuild it for you.

It doesn't have a thermostat.

Just recently a fellow with overheating problems on a B7100 tracked it back to a radiator cap that was not working properly.:thumbsup:

As mentioned a radiator shop may be the way to go.
