Kubota BX2370
Hello all!
New to me BX2370. No issues when I first got it. First thing I did was change all filters and fluids.
Issue I am having now is that when it sits a day or two, I start it, it runs a few minutes and dies.
I can restart it after either bleeding the fuel screw on the injector pump or just leaving the key on for a minute or two with the pump running.
Runs fine after that all day.
I checked all lines, clamps and the two filters. Everything is tight and no leaks or cuts in any lines. Tank is 3/4 full.
Seems like I’m getting air in the system when she sits for a little while.
Any ideas?? Possible bad filters? They are Kubota brand and are flowing correct direction. I have been checking the filters before starting and they are full with no air space in them.
Fuel pump or check valve? Once in a while, I will turn the key and don’t here the pump rattling around.
Thanks for the help!!

Sounds like you are introducing air somewhere along the system. Double check all the connections from the tank to the pump. Next, I'd change out your filters again but save them if replacement doesn't fix the problem. If that doesn't work, call your local Kubota service manager and ask him for suggestions.

Electric fuel pump was the issue. Replaced and have not had any issues since.
