Bought a case of Power Service white bottle-12 quarts-14-15 years ago. Still smells the same,and still seems to work. Have 2 bottles left.

12+ inches in Emmet County here. Got stuck driving to the tractor shed. Not quite Sierra Cement,but the fuel gauge is pretty low after all that blowing. And the gravel drive was just starting to melt off!

Since yours is not the cab model,do you have the dynamo rather than an alternator? It's kind of a AC generator with wimpy output and may require different troubleshooting techniques. Good Luck!

Not that it would explain the no-crank condition,but I'd like to verify battery voltage at the alternator output terminal-the big one with the large red wire. If no power there,the fuse could be blown and explain the not charging issue. The mysterious no crank could very well be the venerable...

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...

Kerosene stores very well. Kero-fired torpedo salamanders fire right up after storage-assuming they are maintained at all. Mix it in-why waste it! Good Luck!

My 2021 L2501 with 20 hours has always smelled rich. Nasty when cold,but still smelly when warm. I admit wife and I are a little sensitive to diesel exhaust. Compared to our B3030,the difference is night and day. I wonder if a turbo kit would lean it out to help us enjoy our tractor more? Great...

By disconnecting the solenoid,it's all about fuel flow. The OPC "Operator Presence Control" can do some strange stuff!

The pumpguysc early on recommended disconnecting the shutdown solenoid at the pump to eliminate any electrical issues. He knows his stuff! Please try it! Good Luck!

You should have a dynamo-an AC generator of sorts with an external regulator. Very reliable! You should really check the DC charging voltage before condemning anything. Good Luck!

Nice set-up! When you recover from the expenditure,are thinking about a cab tractor for that long road? Good Luck!

Awesome posts! Thanks for taking the time and sharing!

WOW! What a hot topic! I'm amazed to see so many infrequent posters comment on Seafoam.

Good Stuff! Looks like the operators manuals from late '70s/early '80s semi-tractors. That's the way it was. Thanks for posting!

I'm surprised Kubota doesn't sell a synthetic but I've never seen one. And their manuals are so outdated on oil specs. They may figure buy it from them and you'll be fine. I've always used 10W30 dino in my units with no issues. Good Luck!

The Kubota branded 10W30 is conventional oil-just like the factory fill. Good Luck as many opinions may follow!

TBN has been down a lot for me this week.

Too bad it isn't auto windshield glass. Would have made clean-up easier!

Repaint it in John Deere green. Just kidding of course!

Call Customer Service and kindly ask that the late fees and service charges be refunded. Tell them why! Probably work at least once. Good Luck!

Have recently been revisiting the Kubota online parts lists. The format has changed but is now much more complete than when I previously posted. They also now have parts lists for optional equipment available on the tractor. Stuff like the FEL,MMM,snowblower,Mid-PTO's,quick hitches,etc. I even...

Great work! I really don't know how you get by without a snowblower and a truck to haul it away. Good Luck!

I doubt the OP would ever need the Mid-PTO in North Carolina!

Seriously consider Rapid-Fix. I've seen auto techs and body guys perform some amazing repairs that last. Check it out online. Good Luck!

I've had them on my B2782 for 5 years now. Helps a little to reduce clean up,but not as much as hoped. If you're trying to widen your frozen/semi-frozen driveway banks,they suck you in real quick! My vote is 65% worth it. Good Luck!

Check out Angle Repair Service in Beckley,WV. The place for torque wrench repair and calibration. Lots of places send them there. Good Luck!

In my former life as a Mac Tools distributor(1988-1996),we sold them as a "choke tester". Worked well!

Contrarian view here. Tractors often see less usage then your car. Longer idle times increase plate sulfation. Standard batteries have fewer,thicker plates spaced further apart. Thicker makes them more vibration resistant and more space between plates allows for more buildup before plates short...

Apparently it was icy cold when this happened. We all know extreme cold shrinks everything,and all bets are off. I agree the needle needs a nudge. Cab model should not be more difficult.

Don't count out Associated chargers. Good Quality! Popular with fleets.

Is it possible your thermostat is stuck open,not allowing the engine to build enough heat to register on the gauge? Good Luck!

Since you have a cab,the hole should have minimal effect. Auto dash clusters have few issues with the hole. Good Luck and post back!

Perhaps drill a tiny hole in the instrument face. Think tiny hole for odometer reset button. Reach inside the gauge with a bent paper clip to persuade the needle back to bottom of scale. This has worked for me before with an gauge cluster with the tiny hole. Not sure if the gauge would cloud up...

A good whack might help? Good Luck!

I think that if the cable was broken,the tach/hourmeter would read zero. Is the hourmeter still adding hours? Perhaps the gauge head needs repair? Please post back!

I've run good old mountain regular-85 octane- many times traveling in the west. Works just fine! Normally it's not sold within a tankful of lower altitude areas.

Be aware that Brian has a rather long waiting list,so it won't happen quickly. Good Luck!

Our local road commission orders flex-fuel models to get the upgrades like stainless fuel lines,etc. Michigan northern rust corridor.

My books from my 2008 purchase show the B2791 subframe fits the B7800. The B2791A must be a later model. I have the B2782 blower,not the B2782A. It would be nice to see the operators and parts manual for both items to see if everything you need is there. Perhaps the seller has them? Some parts...

Maybe a question for thepumpguysc? Good Luck!

Have you found what you needed?

Try the dealer for 6C360-63115. About $21. Good Luck and welcome!

Have you tried looking at the online Illustrated Parts List? Kubotausa.com or some dealers websites. Good Luck!

A member and advertiser here-thepumpguysc I think. Seems like a straight shooter. Good Luck!

Think about a semi truck engine. All they do is work hard from day one. Good Luck!

Just plain old school green ethylene glycol coolant like the automobile world used until about 20 years ago. Can be difficult to find at a big box store-try auto parts store or dealer. Mix 50/50 with distilled water or buy premixed. Others will offer opinions about premium choices. Good Luck!

They used to be about $200,but no idea which kit fits your tractor. As reliable as the dynamo is,I'm surprised Kubota hasn't made alternators standard across the board. Good Luck!

Bet you're glad it's fixed! At least it held up for a lot of years of 4 cylinder vibrations!

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...

ATF-comes in handy. I also drain my empty oil bottles to keep my pump oilers filled.
