Well my friend that's good enough for me :thumbsup:

Well today my customer brought in the BX 1800 I converted to a nice resurfacer a few years ago. This BX has a little over 3000 hours on it. It had the usual air filter bracket cracked so I did a little mod on it and added an extra brace to it.
It also had a situation where it wouldn't shut off with the key. When I checked that out I found the solonide let go from the bracket on the injection pump. I did a fast repair on it buy machining a small stainless steel shaft to weld on the solonide. Then I silver soldered a washer on the bracket so that everything will fit good and not slip out.

Had to make a wiring repair because the fuel pump was cutting out.

When he's done with it in the spring I'll get it back and do a more permanent repair to it.

Here's a few photos.

Yes the infamous BX air cleaner bracket...

First time I heard the rattle I thought the worst and was relieved to find it was only the bracket had let go...

On a separate note... always thought the hood was a little tinny on my BX... found some aircraft anti-vibe material from about 30 years ago and decided to give it a try... the 3M damping material made a noticeable difference and was as simple as peel and stick...

Hey, I like that ! Yikes..... I can just imagine what a replacement filter would cost at my local Kubota dealer.......:confused2:

I doubt Kubota actually made the vacuum. My guess would be that another company is the manufacturer and has made it to Kubota specs and authorized to use their name. There is likely filters that will fit it available from other places than a Kubota dealer. I might not be right in my thinking, and my wife often tries to convince me I am not always right, but sometimes I get a little deaf while she is speaking!

I never saw the vacuums on their web site. Are there other products made by/for Kubota? John Deere seems to be the most seen tractor name in the toy department, but you do occasionally see a few Kubota tractors. Maybe I just haven't found the proper place to shop for these things.

I think it was on messicks site that has all the Kubota branded stuff tools to toys.

I think your talking about dynamat its available from eastwoods.com

Paul, did you build the weight bracket too, looks like that little feller would fall over forward if you unhooked the implement.
