Just take the old filter in and match it up or get a couple different sizes ant take back the one that didn't fit latter.

I just bought 2 new Kubota fuel filters for my BX23
The part number on the package is 12581-43012
Below that is A-240.
There is also another #2 229 near the top of the package.
Maybe the parts place can match it up for you.
I was suprised that the Kubota filters weren't to much more than what I pay at the auto parts store for fuel filters for my 2 dodge D50 pick ups .
Have you ever changed fuel filters on the BX23 before.
If so how big of a job is it?

Don't forget you need 2 filters. Also less messy if you clamp hose on fuel tank side. Good luck.

I ran into this changing the gasoline filter on my dodge d 50 truck.
Fixed that by installing a shut off valve on the inlet hose side of the filter.
