funny, my brother worked in refinery and said winter diesel had more off their off products from refining blended in like propane so it was cheaper fuel for them but I guess those things help stop the gelling.

I will get model # and a bit more info, right now what I'm asking is like..."how long is a piece of string". I need to know hrs, HP, model then we can talk price and if I stay or run.

thanks jeff9366, I looked at some of that too. I guess I need to pin down the model number and decide from there. It is red cab style but box-ier looking, not the curved edges of the newer looking designs. I'm thinking it would have been 90s when he got it. There was a local, good backyard...

too funny Torvy, i totally agree with you but when I cross the border everyone still thinks the Canada side is PNW. For us that would be more like Arctic Circle/North Pole vicinity! 😀

I knew him very well. He came from Slovakia in '68 when many left the country during political turmoil. He worked in heavy equipment fabrication outfitting big stuff to work in the logging industry. He made this backhoe attachment for the Ford 1500 I now own. We modified it to fit my 1962 IH...

My elderly neighbour recently passed and I am looking at buying his enclosed cab tractor from his estate. I know it is made in Romania and he bought it brand new locally. Will most likely have low hours as it was used on small hobby farm. Reasonably well-maintained and kept indoors. He told me...

My 1984 B7100 HST started fine, my son hooked up brushcutter and brought it to shop to grease it up. Afterwards it wouldn't start. Sounds like a weak battery. We tried different battery, jump starting... just won't kick in. It sounds like it's laboring as it turns over, not cranking as hard as...

I have an 80's model Kubota B7100, about 2800 hours. Coolant is looking brown and ugly. Today it was boiling off overflow as I drove slowly using brush cutter on heavy, tall field (I worked it pretty hard). I've drained vehicles before and messed it up by not letting thermostat open, and then...

My W5021 push mower broke a front axle. Part is the same for the W5019 or W5021. please help..... I love this mower....

My highly cherished W5021 broke a front axle tonight. :(:mad:Does anyone have a parts mower or know of one, or someone that sells parts for these? Thanks!! :) I think my Kubota part # is 6560131120 or last 3 digits 220 ( I assume one is right and one is left).

I am looking at a John Deere 850 2WD. Only has 680 hours. Seller thinks it is an early model year based on low VIN. According to tractordata site, it could be as early as 1979. has a yellow John deere boom/loader. Seller just had it in to JD to change transmission oil and repair and adjust...

I changed the filter & TDH fluid on my F935. Manual calls for a capacity of 4.6 quarts, and to check level on sight glass. I'm sure I removed a lot more (it's been awhile since I did fluid change), and I added at least 5 quarts and never saw anything on the sight glass. What's the deal ? the...

I have a B7100 HST 4x4. I bought a RCK-54 -71B mid mount mower deck. It was off of the other B7100 when I got it. I have no idea how it mounts onto mine. I have a front hydraulic operated blade set up and think I might have to remove the blade to get the front "hanger" (?) to set up...

I have a Kubota B7100 HST 4x4. I have a front blade set up that I can move hydraulically, and I also have a rear brush cutter. I am looking at a mid-mount mower and wondering if I need any special mid-PTO set up, or if this tractor has a stock set up to handle this without any changes or...

My 1962 IHB414 was alternator converted. It has some sort of Delco alternator with a small, external regulator. It doesn't charge battery. I was hoping I could go to an auto wrecker and pick up almost any alternator with a built in regulator, and then just run one wire to my POS battery terminal...
