Not yet, been so busy with the holidays. It seems to be working now, but it was before too. Will take it to the dealer next time it acts up. Putting on the signal and flasher kit today. Oh I picked up the SR9c Friday. Hadn't had time to shoot it yet. Will let you know on it too.

Well, gauge quit working again. Took it to local Kubota dealer and they replaced the thermostat. Working just fine now.

Glad it's fixed, apparently under warranty and with reasonable quickness when you got it to them. Am still confused. Replacement was thermostat...am assuming this part gave the apparent bad gauge readings, but in reality, the gauge itself was OK?

They said it was ok. I guess the thermostat was wide open and the engine would run cold all the time. Come to think of it, when it did work, it was on warm days and would just run a little warm. It was all covered by warranty and took about 3 days. Really fast considering i didn't buy it there(Mitchell Equipment). They were real nice and I wouldn't hesitate to go back for more service covered or not.

That's where I got my RTV. Took my tractor to them for AC work this summer...they were in process of looking for an additional mechanic, left tractor there 3 weeks then picked it up unfixed, found someone else to work on it, installed 2 fans in cab and got back in the seat. Agree, nice people and I think they do their best...I kinda would have them find/employ good mechanics rather than just anybody because work is backed up. I've gotten filters, etc. from them as well when doing my own maintenance.
