    CK25 Died, Won't Start - Help with diagnosis/troubleshooting

    Thanks. I sent you a PM about your pump rebuilding service. The solenoid I purchased on eBay was an exact match. It worked fine too. But that is not my problem. Bad, fuel injector pump. Sigh.

    CK25 Died, Won't Start - Help with diagnosis/troubleshooting

    Sorry to be slow to get this, but what do you mean by hold it open? To get it to start I need the pin to retract right? Could I press the pin in? How about cutting it off with bolt cutters?

    CK25 Died, Won't Start - Help with diagnosis/troubleshooting

    Thanks for the help. I have 12v to the engine stop solenoid. When I supply 12v to one pin and ground the other solenoid pin it does not retract. I am guessing I have a bad solenoid and have ordered a replacement.

    CK25 Died, Won't Start - Help with diagnosis/troubleshooting

    While moving in the yard, the my 07 CK25 slowly lost power and died. It wouldn't restart. It turns over fine. For troubleshooting, I removed my fuel filter to check fuel. The fuel pump works in the sense it will slowly fill the bowl. If I use a little starting fluid, it runs for a short while. I...

    Battery Light Slowly comes on as I work - CKHST25

    Tractor starts up fine and all dash lights that should be off are. After a while the battery light comes on very dim at first then a little brighter, but never really light. Would this indicate a charging problem? Is it likely to be the alternator going out slowly? I thought alternators usually...

    CK25 Light on the dash after Winter? Can't find in user guide

    I am cleaning up my tractor after plowing to get it ready for the change over to mowing, and I have a light on the dash that I don't know what it means. I tried going through the user guide from Kioti, but I don't see it anywhere. Here is a picture: This light came on once or twice very...

    CK25 Leaking Hydraulic Fluid?

    Everything went fine on the cooler replacement without me having to mess around with the hoses. Here is a picture of the new unit installed before I put everything back together: I thought that I might have to loosen the hoses where they are attached to the fittings in the tractor floor, but...

    CK25 Leaking Hydraulic Fluid?

    Thanks for checking in with me. Work was really busy for me so I put this to one side for a while. I've been buying tools like a 21MM wrench and trying to find the right transmission fluid. And that is what I need help with. The tractor manual says these fluids work: Mobilfluid 423 or 424 Exxon...

    CK25 Leaking Hydraulic Fluid?

    My parts arrived from Michigan Iron and I started the repair. I took the suggestion to remove the battery, and the air cleaner: But when I got the new part out, it is wider than the old cooler. It looks like it is the correct part according Michigan Iron website: T2185-37021 Do I just...

    CK25 Leaking Hydraulic Fluid?

    When I was clearing snow yesterday, I began to notice a kind of sweet smell, not like oil. I pulled the tractor over and looked under the hood to find everything covered in what looks like oil. My first thought was the oil filter I put on recently was not tight enough, but that wasn't it. I...

    Bad Luck with Kioti CK25 Starting Problem - Again!

    Previously, I had asked for help in troubleshooting the lack of power to the starter solenoid in this thread: http://www.tractorbynet.com/forums/kioti-owning-operating/281374-ck25-finally-wont-start-no.html Once I got that resolved, the tractor has been starting and running fine - I've been...

    CK25 Finally Won't Start - no power from switch to the solenoid.

    I was having intermittent no start problems, particularly on wet days. I thought that they were related to the switch because they could often be fixed by a spray of contact cleaner into the key slot. Finally the tractor would not start, all the lights come on the dash, the glow plug light would...

    Replacing the Ignition Switch - How to? CK25

    My Kioti CK25 ignition switch finally gave up working after I had revived it many times with cleans of electrical contact cleaner, so it needs replaced, and I now have a brand new factory replacement. But how do you install it? I have the factory workshop manual, which does not seem to cover...

    Recommended Place to Buy Parts on the Web - No Local Dealer for CK25

    Kioti CK25 I don't live close to any local dealer. As a new owner of a used tractor, I now need some maintenance parts that I can find by Googling part #s. Rather than just buy from the cheapest place - I know that cheapest is not always best service etc - does anyone have a recommendation on a...
