    Kubota B3350 - Turbo Diesel or Not?

    I think this may be a picture of the top of the turbo assembly on the 3350. Most of the turbo is hidden but I think the small metal tube on the right is one of the oil supply or return lines. I took this when I was purchasing my 2650. You can see the hood scoop that the 3350 has as well that the...

    Kubota B3350 - Turbo Diesel or Not?

    Beck: Thanks. As a new (again) owner I didn't know the parts fiches were there. Here's a pic of the turbo with the part numbers. It looks to be bolted directly to the exhaust manifold. Click on the small image and then click again to see the full sized image.

    Pics of B2650 engine compartment first. And then the B3350 with the additional plumbing. The Turbo must be under there somewhere in the 3350 photos. B2650 Engine Compartment B3350 Engine Compartment

    Kubota B3350 - Turbo Diesel or Not?

    I've seen several references to the new B3350 diesel engine being turbo charged. My dealer says it is not. I did a close inspection and could not see a turbo anywhere but it is tight under the hood with that gigantic pollution control canister up there. I Googled and even read the Kubota...

    Question: Is the B2650 big enough to pull a Land Pride RB2672? This is the 6' non-hydraulic blade. Says these are for HP 25-60. I had a 6' Rhino 350 series on my old B3300SU and had no issues. The Land Pride seems to have an even bigger replacable bolt on mold board. Input would be appreciated...

    New B2650 Owner

    I relocated from Colorado to the east coast reluctantly. I divorced in 2012 and retired from my company of 25+ years (Hewlett Packard). I decided to move back to the east coast where I lived until 1992. I grew up on a farm in Maryland and selected New England as it was someplace I've visited a...

Lived in Massachusetts for two years until I finally decided to move to Rhode Island and buy a house. Now I needed a new tractor. [emoji2] Started to examine all of the dealers in Rhode Island...

    Oil & Fuel  B3300SU - Oil Choices

    Okay, have about 10 hours on my B3300SU I got a few weeks ago now. I had a thread over in the Kubota Pricing/Buying for a month and got a lot of good purchase advice. Most of which I actually took! Now, at about 10 hours my little B3300SU has used a bit of oil. I recall clearly the delivery...

    Kubota B3300SU Pricing

    Oops. Looks like this needs to be put into the Kubota specific forum. Sorry moderators. I assume someone will move this thread. =========== I live in Rural Colorado and have started the search for a new B3300SU. I bought a B7610 in 2004 but sold it in 2006 when we changed houses. Now want a...

    Cart for my Kubota?

    Hello: I'm in need of a cart to use with my 7610. I have a decent sized cart that I use with my Sears Garden Tractor, but am wishing for something larger. Q1: Does anyone use a big cart/wagon with their tractor? Q2: Who makes them and what sizes do they come in? I don't want something as...

    Dealer  Dealers are strange businessmen sometimes.

    Well, I've already purchased my tractor (7610) a few weeks ago but wanted to share my experiences in trying to deal with them. I live in Colorado Springs, CO. I initially dealt with three different dealers in order to determine price and availability. I ended up purchasing a tractor from my...

    Made my decision - got the 7610

    Well, I posted my original message in the general forum, but I should have posted it here. Was considering the BX2230, the B7610, and the B7800. Got the 7610 with FEL and 5' blade today. Nice price. Local dealer is good. The 2230 was too small and lacked ground clearance. It could only lift...
