My serial# and local Kubota dealer will tell you when my Kubota was built.

"My serial# and local Kubota dealer will tell you when my Kubota was built"

Yeah..... but I don't think the OP really cares even a little bit about when YOUR Kubota was built.

I do know what you intended though!
Just pullin' your chain.

Sounds more like a fuel line.

Your closest JD dealership would be able to get closer to the year than most, however if this is correct, the 4520 was only made in 1969 and 70:

John Deere "recycles" the model numbers. 2005-2014 they (John Deere) made a compact. I hope the OP has "replacement value coverage" When my JD 285 was stolen the insurance company paid for a new x700 since it was the closest new model that had liquid cooling, as my 285 did.

wow, sorry to hear about you losing your tractor. My aunt's 85hp JD burnt to the ground a few months ago, however it had been sitting for 2 weeks and it spontaneously caught fire one evening. Fire inspector suspected mice or rats chewing on electrical wires and something may have shorted the battery causing it to catch fire. I still don't know how that's possible but it literally burned to the frame. She luckily had replacement value and ended up getting enough money to fund a brand new one. Hope you have similar luck.

If you have machine serial number any John Deere dealer can look it up as to when it was built, where and to who sold and whatever dealer work or services have been performed.

Here you can bargain with your insurance company and don't have to accept their first offer. It pays to have pictures of older equipment in good condition, although you could get into apraisal territory and pay higher premiums.

I don稚 know. I was on the road driving it back to my house and I could smell something burning. I got out and a small hose had some fire. In a matter of 30 seconds it was completely on fire. I think it may have been a hydronic hose.

I'd had my tractor for less than a year and one day I'm setting up to use the post hole digger and my son says "I'm smelling a lot of diesel." me: "yeah well it's a diesel" son: "no, look, there's something just pouring onto the ground"
Rodents (of the usual size) had chewed through the diesel return line.

Needless to say, it's kept in a container now...

I'll see you that movie reference, and raise you one and say 'INCONCEIVABLE!'

I filled the tank on my father's L2800 last fall but when I went to use it a few months later it was almost empty, with a big diesel stain underneath it. Upon inspection the overflow line had been disconnected from the tank, and fallen low enough so that it could siphon out onto the ground.
