Thank you for all the inputs and as always helpful information. @ pony tug: I will check the alternator. @bmaverick , good idea to use sea foam, I’ll see if that helps, thanks for the info

When I give a lot of power then black smoke is coming out as well as on start up. I use bar’s or wynn’s stop smoke/ engine oil treatment and Wynn’s diesel plus treatment. But this doesn’t help. I don’t think the diesel is the problem as my Kubota L245 and Toro 223D works fine with it.

@alexpops. Coolant tank and oil looks normal. It’s difficult to describe the smell, it’s not the usual diesel smell, maybe it is burned coolant or oil , I don’t know. I always put an additive in the oil and fuel to clean injectors and to reduce smoke (but it does not have excessive smoke)

No dead animal somewhere. Is it possible that the engine gets hotter than normal? It does not have a engine temp gauge..

Thanks for the replies. This could not give the strong smell then…..

Thank you azbinder for the information!

Hi repete , can’t send a pic now. the leak is where the upper part of the front knuckle is pivoting on the lower part. I can see it’s oily between the two parts and from there the oil is leaking downwards. thanks Joe

Hi , I have a Kubota L245DT which has a small leak on the left front wheel. Which seal(s) do have to replace and where can I get them. I have the parts Manual but it is not clear to me which parts need repair. Anyone who did replace this before? Any help is very much appreciated! Thanks, Joe

Thanks for the info! Appreciate.

Thank you Winston!

Hi, I am wondering what the difference is between the YM1720 , YM1710 and the YM1702 series? kind regards, Joe

Hi, This is the three point hitch on my YM1510D. As you can see on the picture this is not the original three point hitch for a Yanmar but this is how I bought it. The stabiliser chains are on the outside of the lower lift arms. This results in bending both pins. For this reason I would like to...
