I am looking at getting a tiller for foodplots. I have a 2003 Kioti LK3054. I was wondering if anyone had any experience with a 5ft tiller vs a 6ft tiller? Just wanted to see if the 6 ft was too big for the tractor. Ideally I would like a 6 ft just because of the size, but also want it to be...

Saw a Kioti LK3054 advertised. Text says the BH is "frame mounted NOT a 3pt hitch" making it better. Question is, is that so? Is it frame mounted? Is there also a 3pt hitch?

The direct alternator replacement for a Kioti LK3054 is the alternator for a 1979 Mazda B2000 truck. This alternator is a Mitsubishi and is identical down to the 4 pole pigtail plug. (You might need a shorter belt, however the belt on my tractor may have been plenty stretched due to it being an...

I have an 2003 LK3054. I cannot find anything on the internet about this so hopefully I can get some guidance here. On the top of the engine, there is a hose that comes out and bends down and runs along the side of the tractor and drains down. I was brushhogging Sunday night, and parked the...

The voltage dash light on my LK3054 is either flashing slow or intermittently coming on. I've read through some posts here and there and seems it may possibly be a voltage regulator. Has anyone any tips regarding this? Thank you.

I'm pretty new to this tractor thing, but I bought a decent sized piece of land and needed one to help take care of it. A year ago I picked up a LK3054 and this spring my PTO stopped working. I took it apart and found the PTO shift fork broken. Today I got the new fork, installed it and put...

I have recently purchased a Kioti LK3054 4WD and I can not shift the PTO into gear with the tractor running. It seems as though I should be able to push the clutch all the way to the floor and then engage the PTO, but it grinds terribly and the PTO does not shift with the tractor running. Am I...

I am the new owner of a Kioti LK3054 and I've been searching for basic operator information and I still have a couple questions that I hope you might answer. How do you check the oil level on the plug above the PTO? Is that plug for transmission fluid? I put my finger all the way in and came up...

We were introduced to you by Nick R, who responded to a Craigslist post asking for help with a problem with the power steering assembly. The sector shaft broke completely in 2 and, after Charlie's initial search revealed the power steering ***'y at $3,600 :confused2:, we decided to look further...

Hello, I'm the new owner of a Kioti LK3054 that has me and Kioti customer service scratching our heads. The serial number begins with an 8 which means it was built in 1998. The next three digits are 265 which, according to Kioti information, means it is an LK3054SX model. However, the underside...

I am trying to help out a friend with a Kioti LK3054. Engine will not rev all the way up unless I move the injector pump rack forward manually with a screwdriver while it is running. The linkage feels like it is pulsating in a fore-and aft direction while the engine is running. The governor...

We are trying to find the year for a Kioti LK3054. From what I have read it can be found in the first digits of the serial #. The first four digits are 5265. We are looking at selling this tractor with a cab and KL122 loader.

Has anyone replaced the tachometer on a Kioti LK3054? I can find the tachometer cable in the parts book and in the on-line part houses but not the tach itself. A new cable didn't help. Has anyone ever replaced the tach and if so, where did you get the part? Thanks.

If anyone has any tips on installing the basic tractor implement lights "rectangle" on the front of a kioti LK3054 no front end loader, i would greatly appreciate the advice. I know it's a pretty basic job for the most novice of electricians, but that is not my strong suit!..

I have a LK3054 with about 700 hours. The other day I put my foot on the clutch and I kept moving. Doesn't seem to engage the motion or the PTO. I checked the free play in the pedal and it seemed OK, but gave it a few more turns anyway but no difference. Is there anything I can check or do...

Hi,just found this site seems like a good place to get answers to a few questions on the used 2004 Kioti LK3054 XS tractor i just purchased. Paid 12,000.00 with FEL 500 hours.excellent condition,stored in heated garage. Was this a fair price? Like to install backhoe..would this tractor handle...

Both are very clean, parked inside, and original owners. The Kioti has somewhat lower hours. The Kubota is somewhat more expensive and a couple years newer. The Kubota is 32HP, the Kioti 30.5HP. The Kubota is about 2200 lbs, the Kioti 2900 lbs. Any compelling reason to go with one or the other?

-I was just curious if any other LK3054 owners out there knew anything about the bucket availabitity for the KB-1550 backhoe attachment. I am looking to upgrade from the 12" to at least 18", or maybe even a 24". Is there a source other than going through Kioti direct? My nearest Kioti Dealer is...

Hey Ya'll, I have an LK 3054 (1996). The fan blade that cools the radiator will not turn and the belt slides around it. I removed all the housing around the fan and was able to turn the fan by hand, but it wobbles.It also appears that this assemble may be attached to the water pump. 1) What...

Kioti LK3054...No PTO I just replaced the drive clutchplate in my LK3054 due to ZERO travel. When I split the tractor and got it out, it was totally gone. Got one, put everything back together and now no PTO. The rear PTO did work fine before I "fixed" it. I know this because I used the 3 point...

I have an 03 LK3054. The hydraulic system is slightly inadequate when it comes to operating the Rhino 2408 Front Loader. I've heard that Kioti came out with an upgraded hydraulic pump to correct this. Does anyone have any info on this unit? Thanks for any info/help.

First, let me say that I am a woman and at the mercy of mechanics. Bear with me while I explain my story! I bought a used 4WD diesel Kioti LK3054 (don't know what year it is) about 2 months ago on ebay for $4,000 plus tax. The big selling point for me was that it had only 32 hours on it...

Hi tractor friends. My new LK3054 with FEL and BH arrived. Bill from Sawnee Equipment showed me how the FEL and BH worked. Before he left I had him disconnect the KB2365 BH, so I could bushhog. Bushhogging done, I wanted to hook up the BH. I read the Kioti KB2365 "Users Manual, printed in...

The classified ads section of this board list a used LK3054. No year, no hours. The pic looks pretty good (tires maybe show a little wear), the bush hog behind it looks kind of rough. Price is $6495. I've sent the dealer an email asking some questions (I'm not a mechanic, so these are best...

When I attempt to start my 3054, the starter motor whizzes but does not engage. The battery is new. If I click the starter switch until it sounds like it is engaging, then pull the decompression knob and try again, it occassionally starts. Do you think I need to replace the entire...

I'll post this here since I was not paying attention the first time... Does anybody know what size the fitting is that needs to go into the hydraulic valve block? I know it's not 16mm. It might be 5/8? There are 3 of them and I'm wanting to replace the ones I got with o-ring to #6 JIC 37's and...

I received a response back from Kioti. If you have a late model 3054 (not XS) which I believe it would be somewhere around 2001 and up it will be the higher output of 7.3 which does jive with the current service manual I got. The XS owners can have a ample amount of flow.. Heres what I got from...

On my 3054 the hydraulic ports are like this: It has the pressure port, a tank port, and a neutral port. The loader (Buhler 195) valve is attached to all 3. Heres the question: If I was to plumb into this for a small BH, would I attach into the neutral port after the loader valve? And would...

Just bought a new LK 3054 and I gotta tell you I just love it. Best investment I ever made and every bit as good as a Kubota if not better. I am heartbroken though as it failed to start on me after I got done mowing the lawn today. Starter has been sounding a bit "off" lately. I have a full...
