    Kubota Grand L filters from WIX.

    Retired from auto parts sales several years ago. At that time,I never saw any major aftermarket brands offering the hydraulic and HST filters for the Grand L filters. You know,those two expensive filters on either side of the tractor. Thinking about heading to the dealer to buy for the year for...

    Illustrated Parts Lists

    I recently noticed the format of Kubota's illustrated parts lists have changed. They are at kubotausa.com,and are the same ones Messicks takes you to,as well as other dealer's websites. So far,I've found them much more difficult to use. If I don't get the hang of the new lists,I'll be tempted to...

    Super Clean vs. soot

    Some time back I picked up a spray bottle of Super Clean after seeing an ad on TV. When I removed my front snowblower this spring,the left side was covered in soot as usual. Well,I sprayed some Super Clean on it and tried to rinse it off with the water hose. No dice! So I wiped it off with a...

    Oil change with Form-a-Funnel

    I occasionally see B3030 owners wondering how to do a neater oil change. The loader mount is directly under the oil pan drain plugs. There are two access holes in the mount for socket clearance,but no way will the oil flow through them! Enter the Form-a-Funnel. It's a 6 1/2" x 14 1/2" flexible...
