I just acquired a deere AMT 626- one of those funny looking 4 wheel in the back, one wheel front - gizmos. My nearby dealer is happy to take it in for service, but I would like to solve this myself- I think the centrifugal clutch is out of adjustment...I have the idle set very low (audibly low...

Someone on the forum here bought an inexpensive tool or adapter that will let you load your own tires with washer fluid....any help? I assume it is simply a garden hose to air nozzle adapter? I already have a pump, just need the adaptor (and any helpful hints!) Also, anyone fill the front...

I am hoping to find a new set of decals/stickers for my B7100DT - anyone heard of a source?

Please forgive me for posting down here, but you folks on the Yanmar forum are much more mechanically inclined than the people on the major brand boards above....I have just purchased an early 80s kubota 4wd 7100, very similar to a Yanmar 1500 or 1700...perhaps you can help.... My new to me...

My new to me forlorn B7100 has a strange gear noise in 3rd (the highest) gear only- a chunga chunga vibration that varies with RPM. It happens in either range, and being in or out of 4wd has no effect. The other 2 gears and reverse are silent, except for the normal gear whine in reverse. Every...

A friend of mine pulled this walk behind tractor from the weeds, complete with a 60's era B&S engine and a bunch of attachments. he is now restoring...the name plate says Might Man Garden Tacoma Washington....anyone have any info? original engine, specs etc would be greatly appreciated.

I just bought (perhaps rescued is the proper term) a neglected B7100 DT as my next project tractor. In general the machine runs well, drives well despite the rusty appearance. I have rejuvenated 5 older compact diesels to date, this being the poorest in initial condition. On to the questions...

I have succeeded in dismantling my 370 beaver, replacing fluids belts filters, and completely grinding and repainting my beaver. looks great. the problem is that in the process I bent up one of the little wire clip retainers that holds the air cleaner end cap on...the air cleaner housing is in...

The mitsubishi board is really quiet lately, so I thought I would throw this over here where some tractor-restorer types hang. Please don't take offense to my Mitsu question (!) I need to get my steering wheel off on my S370 beaver....got the big bolt off inside the steering wheel, but that...

I need to get my steering wheel off on my S370 beaver....got the big bolt off inside the steering wheel, but that does not release it....any help? I am hesitant to pull up with much force, dont want to break a good steering wheel.

Last nite, while brush hogging in 90 degree temps with 48" hog, my red temp lite came on just after hitting a clump of dirt that nearly stalled the tractor. Questions- Was the near-stall related to the temp lite? The grill screen was clear, fan spinning, and coolant full and fresh (last I...

Any ideas? Willing to pay fair price for a manual - copied or electronic is fine.... smahler@partnerstrust.com Thanks

I have a 25 yr old Mitsubishi Beaver compact which has been a handy and reliable worker for me over the last couple years. Last nite, while plowing snow in -5 F temps, I noticed a couple times when the engine lugged a bit (letting out clutch in high gear) a couple sparks shot out of the...

So I was doing some last minute brush mowing last saturday before a haunted halloween hayride deep into my woods. it was cold and off/on rainy. On my way back to the house I have to cross my big stream - on the sturdy bridge I built 3yrs ago. Bridge is 16' accross, 5' wide with a center support...

I purchased a FarmPro 4' cutter from Homier last week, travelling show - anyhow, all is well except that there is a pretty loud howl to the cutter- in fact when you turn the shaft by hand there is a tick tick feel - and if I turn it by hand as fast as I can, a rough growl is audible. At PTO...
