Kubota M62 Cranks But Won't Start

[LouNY]

You may be able to locate that housing in a tractor salvage yard,
or alternatively is it a Donaldson unit.

Different subject. Is that the exhaust pipe thru the front grill above the axle?

Shot a photo yesterday that shows the muffler a little more clearly, SD. Comes out under the grill, above the axle housing.

It's pretty loud, enough so that I'm wondering if it's got a spark arrestor in it. They're required by law out here.

Thanks for the pic. Hadn’t seen a M62 up close. Wonder how that works mowing fields? Or in the woods? Be careful, when you push over trees you could get root ball kick in the ole tailpipe;-)

Carry a fire extinguisher.

Can't be too careful on one of these things, that's for sure.

Gotta move the fire extinguisher over from the old tractor, as soon as it gets back from the dealer.

My L4060 has a similar shape & placement for exhaust. No issues despite a couple hundred hours mowing, some of which is heavy brush. Unlike the 3rd function plumbing which I & others have busted a lot.
