I have a Kubota G1800 spewing oil from the front of the engine (16 HP Kubota D662 diesel engine). Hard to see where the leak is from as pulleys and flywheel is in the way. I have pulled the PTO pully and flywheel to be able to see. In the center of the picture is the front of the crankshaft...

This is really info in case others have the same problem. So LS XR 4046 with about 100 hours, ECM fuse kept blowing within a few minutes of starting. It was the ECM fuse in the fuse box near the steering wheel that kept blowing. Not the two ECM fuses up near the battery. Took a lot of hours to...

KubotA G1800 with about 900 hours. So I have, what appears to be a small oil leak, where the inlet manifold attaches to the cylinder head. Oozing out between where the inlet manifold attaches to the cylinder head. If could be a bad inlet manifold gasket, but I can't imagine oil being in that...

You might also check under the radiator screen under the steering wheel. There is a voltage regulator tucked away under there, right behind the dash. I had the dynamo (basically an alternator) go bad, which then seemed to cause the voltage regulator to fail. Obviously you need about 13-14V...

I'm getting ready to do my 50 hour service. Oil & Filter. Hydraulic filter. Pre-fuel filter, grease, clean radiator, etc. My question is about some of the items on the list, specifically: Check front axle oil level. Torque exhaust manifold bolts. Torque of wheel bolts and nuts. Clutch...

I second RayK checking the u-joints on the PTO shaft. I have been chasing a vibration problem on my G1800 with 900 hours for a while. I was chasing it on the engine, and couldn't make it get better. It was slowly degrading. I finally found the issue on the front u-joint on the HST PTO shaft...

Folks, it took more time to figure this out than to do the install. Getting comfortable that I was tapping into the hydraulics correctly took the most time. Attached is a write up with some pictures that may help others. Rich TITLE: Installing 3rd function remote on LS XR4046 I installed a...

Thanks for the help all. INstalled and working nicely. Just need to better constrain the hydraulic lines at the front of the loader. Planning on some kind of bracket to attach to loader.

In case others want a source. ON the back of the ingnition switch are 6 posts. 3 were used, and one of the other 3 provided 12V when the key was turned on. Used it to power the 3rd function, and is working fine. The YELLOW wire in the pic is the one that provided a 12V source. Fused the wire...

Re: How to remove Power Beyond Fitting on LS 4046 Ok, well glad I asked and I am all stop until I am sure I have the correct line. Here is a better pic of the entire loader control value. Line 4 is coming out the bottom and going back to the remote control valve (I think that drives the 2...

Installing the W.R.Long 3rd function remote. Anyone alreadyi found a convenient source of power for the joy stick? 10 amps desired. Thanks, Rich

For mudstopper. It is line 4 in this picture. The G822S03 to the left is the loader value. The G827S01 is the Remote Control Value. So I am pretty certain that it is the Power Beyond Port. Definitely don't want to be wrong......

I'm installing a 3rd function on a LS 4046. I have to remove the power beyond value, and then attach this to the grapple valve kit. Here is a picture of the fitting to be removed. It looks like it has a nut on both the top and the bottom of the off coming hydraulic hose. How do I remove the...

I am not finding anything with the search engine. What size chain and which type steel should I purchase for a 4046 (46 HP) tractor. Nothing planned, just occasionally lifting, maybe pulling a log or something out of the ditch, lifting something out of the truck. etc. And what length is most...

Happily took delivery of a XR4046 with loader yesterday. Plan on getting the 3rd function remote, grapple, bush hog, box blade for use on my 20 acres here and for deer plots off location (trailer) where we hunt. Looking forward to getting the property cleaned up around here. :thumbsup:
