Hello All -
I'm wanting to do the valve clearance check and need confirmation on which is the #1 cylinder.
I have the WSM (page attached) that states the #1 cylinder is nearest the gear case. Are they referring to the fan/water pump end of the engine as being the gear case? The BX has the...
I did get the cylinder taken apart and got the seals replaced. I'm hoping to get it reinstalled tonight to test things out. To answer my previous question, yes the center piston is used to push out the end caps and it does take quite a bit of force to do so.
One item I'll contribute to this...
Milkman - Thanks for the pointers so far!!
So I took a closer look at the circlip last night and it was pretty apparent that there wasn't sufficient clearance between the cylinder wall and what I'm calling the end cap (see blue line below) to get the clip out. Using a straight punch, I...
Holy procrastination... I started this thread 2 years ago and I finally made the commitment to get this job done!!
I have the cylinder off and have a couple of questions to start off with.
Are there tips for getting the circlip below out? I'm assuming this is the first step?
Also, to...
I just installed my new-to-me BX2750C on my BX2350. After reading up ahead of time, I was skeptical of Kubota's original idea of mounting the chute rotate handle to the FEL joystick. After using it once, I was convinced it was a bad idea.
So I looked over the right side of the machine...
Like the saying goes "if it ain't broke, fix it 'til it is".
A while back I picked up a pressure gauge to test the pressure relief valve setting on my BX2350. It was reading about 1,700psi so I got some shims from the dealer to bump it back up closer to the 1,850 max setting.
I put in 0.3mm...
So here we are, 14 months after I started this thread. I'm in the process of switching the BX from summer mode to winter mode and figured this is a good time to look into rebuilding the steering cylinder to (hopefully) get rid of the freeplay.
Looking at the parts explosion below, is item G...
I found a used BX2750C blower for my BX2350 tractor. I know the latest model for the blower is the D.
Can anyone tell me the differences between the two blower models?
I was doing some yard work yesterday and noticed that when the tires are pointing straight and I slowly turn the steering wheel the tires will not respond. If I turn sharply then they react normally. If the tires are already turned, then they appear to respond to the steering wheel correctly...
I've owned this machine since it was new. Over the past year or two it seems that when I engage the 60" MMM the engagement is much more abrupt than it used to be. It almost sounds like a muffled bang and there's a cloud of smoke from the exhaust resulting from the partial stall of the engine...
The Background: We converted an exiting pole building that was originally built as living quarters into garage space. Due to the original build intent, the floors do not slope any particular direction. The in-floor heat does a terrific job of melting the snow from the vehicles in the winter...
When I put the 2350 in to 4wd, the rear tires act like I have the diff lock engaged (inside tire scrubbing during tight turns).
I compared 4wd and no diff lock to 2wd with diff lock and the rears act the same in both cases. At first I thought the diff lock was stuck but then I put it into...
Up until now I've always had portable compressors. I'm now upgrading to this CH 60 gallon stationary unit: Campbell Hausfeldｮ 60 Gallon Cast Iron Air Compressor - 3310006 | Tractor Supply Company
I have a Friends and Family 15% discount coupon that I can use for this but its only good one...
Normally I'd time it to run out of fuel about the time the stations start offering winter blend at the pumps. However, I have a 5 gallon jug of #2 left over from this summer. I can get #1 from the local truck stop and mix my own winter blend. My only question is, what's the typical ratio for...
