I have had the same problem for years, every six months or so. I refuse the massive job of pulling the tank for cleaning. I installed a remote filter kit so I don't have to crawl under the tractor ever again. I modified a spare filter bowl with a tire pressure valve for the new remote kit so...

So yesterday I was moving some dirt and there was a terrible noise and as I was backing up my front drive shaft was on the ground. Upon inspection it looks like I lost the pin that holds the universal joint on the the input spline of the front axle. I went to the Kubota dealer this morning and...
I am considering using a rototiller on my BX24. Seeing as how the 3 point hitch does not have any down force I was wondering how well it would work. Does any one use a rototiller with their BX tractor?
I own a BX24 and I think there is something wrong with the glow plug operation. I want to start by saying that the tractor starts and runs fine, but I don't think the glow plugs are operating correctly. I started it yesterday at about 25 Deg.F and when I turn the key switch to the first setting...
I've had an intermittent cut out problem for a while and finally decided to ask for comments. Every once in a while, maybe 1 out of 10 times when I go from forward to reverse on my BX24 the tractor dies for a split second and comes right back. It's not just a cold weather problem as it was doing...
So I was having a problem with my BX24 and while I have solved the root problem I still don't know how the system works. The problem was that when I had the brush hog attached to the tractor, it would stall and not restart if I got off the seat. I have figured out that the PTO engagement lever...
The previous owner of my tractor had installed tubes in the front tires, probably from getting many flats. So one of the front tires went flat on me a couple of months ago because the valve stem of the tube cracked so I installed a regular valve stem from the outside filled up the tire and...
Here are some pictures of the project my son and I did with the BX24, burying our trampoline. It is a 14' trampoline that required a 15' diameter hole, 31" deep. That was a lot of dirt to move. I also bought a Bro-Tek Ripper tooth and thumb. It took about two weeks but we are not officially done...
Does anyone know which parts diagram on the Messick's site would show the rubber bellows at the bottom of the FEL control handle? Mine is all chewed up and I'd like to replace it but downloading all those parts catalogs is a pain.
I don't know if it matters but I am new to tractors and hydrostatic drives. When traveling at a slow speed like when using a rear rotary mower and you don't need the torque of low range, is it better to be in low range if you can go the speed that you want or is is better to be in high gear and...
I'm having a weird problem with my BX24. After I have been using it for about 45 minutes at a continuous high RPM while brush hogging a field the RPM's will suddenly drop off. It doesn't die it just drops RPM's to about 2000. When it happens I turn off the PTO and bring the RPM's down to idle...
I decided to go ahead and change all the fluids on by BX24 today. It has 250 hours on it but since it is new to me, I like to get all the fluids fresh so I know what I've got. Engine oil and filter 15W40 and Kubota filter, HST fluid and filter Super UDT2 and Kubota filter, cleaned filter screen...
I went through and greased my FEL and BH today for the first time since I got my BX24 tractor. I had three fitting on the BH that would not take grease. Two of them were on the stabilizing arms and I was able to take them apart and clean them up and got them working again. The third one is the...
