Best of luck with your fix-up work. Kubota and the other manufacturers have sold a lot of these little tractors. Unfortunately, not all of them went to owners who knew or cared about maintaining them properly, so buying a used one involves some risk that you'll find one of the neglected units. I hope nothing truly serious was needed to get yours back in good shape.

Personally, I think the BX line started to slip after the 23.

What kind of issues are you finding?
There are some common things to watch for like the hydro fan, adding a skid pan, water in the light switches and the infamous air cleaner bracket...
I've been real pleased with mine and really can't imagine not having it...

Hi Everything Broken,
Welcome to the TBN!
I am very sorry to hear that you are having a bunch of stuff gone wrong on your new (to you) tractor.
Best wishes for a quick repair and refurbishment and getting her back to work ASAP.
I know from long experience that it sucks to have a tractor break down just when you need it most.
Happy and safe tractoring (soon,),
Thomas

Yep agreed not because I own one just the plastic fender thing if my 23 came with plastic it wouldn't have any now I've beat the snot out of this tractor for over 1500 hours without serious issues I do the oil changes more often than most though
