Parts must be a real nightmare to try to stock to cover all of these different machines.

The 7284 has a 3011C CAT motor it has been around for a long time. It is one of the best small diesel motors in its class with an impressive torque rating. If anyone wants to check it out go to CAT's website and type in 3011C in the search window. You can run this motor at least 500hrs before doing any maint.

Need to fill in your bio. That's interesting, I mean the Sterling thing. Could have called yourself Louisville Larry.

Do you really think that the Caterpillar website would say anything detrimental about their own product??
Real world experience beats corporate testimonials any day.
I like Cats, I have a 3406E. I also like Detroit's. DDEC is light years ahead of any engine management system that Caterpillar has. It's interesting, Detroit complied with the emission standards set forth by the Federal Gummit while Cat paid the fine. Cummins folded and Mack said heck with it.
As of today, engines in the agricultural arena don't have to be emissions compliant, but they will and very soon. The Japanese are already enviromentally aware and their engines reflect that.

Ive got a new 8040 cub cadet. for the longest time i thought it was a Kabota tractor with a differant paint job. untill i seen the Kioti web site, but the Kioti web site shows that my tracter uses a diesle engine made in Korea, and my cub 8000 series has a 41 hp Kabota engine in it. so im confused by this, Did cub cadet have Kioti build the frames and Kabota the engines on the 8000 tractors?
