Kioti CK25 won't start

K man · Dec 2, 2014

I just read a " sticky " post on this problem with Injector pumps and I read that it was a problem for many years prior to 2008. I just hope Kioti has made sure that this does not happen on the newer ones like mine 2013.

Hello K man, that is one of the things that I want to clarify with the Kioti Dealer. If they rebuild mine or if they utilize a New Injector Pump, will it be the same material, same parts, same design, etc. or have adjustments been made that will hopefully ensure that the replacement - whether rebuilt or new - holds up better than the original. Although mine is 6 years old, I only have 197 hours. I wouldn't expect a failure like this at only 197 hours.

I agree with you totally man. I have had in the past old International (1940) and Massey Harris ( 1956) and none ever gave me any problems with fuel injector pumps. The tractors basically fell apart and rotted away but still ran. So no real reason in this day and age for that. I just hope I do not run into that problem with my Kioti or it will be my last. Just sayin.

Kitaquickflash Just wondering if you got the pump fixed or replaced.

I picked up my tractor this past weekend and I got away relatively cheap. They were able to have the injection pump rebuilt at a local Diesel shop. It was $475 plus tax. When you figure that I have had the tractor 6 years and that is the first problem that I have had, I don't feel too bad about that. I used it for several hours over the weekend and it ran great.
