I have a guy who is trying to fix my L3710, which has a hole in the front gear case. He says this is a common problem because Kubota put the steering cylinder in the wrong place. They break and go through gear cases.
He says he has a problem. To adjust the injection timing, he believes he needs a special Kubota tool.
Can anyone here shed light on this? Often, there are workarounds for proprietary tools.
He thinks the dealership will try to nail me for several thousand dollars if I can't get an independent repairman who can fix it.
The reason the timing is involved is that a lot of injector stuff comes off when you remove the front gear case.
The manual doesn't mentiong special tools, but then manuals say things like, "1. Remove engine. 2. Replace."
