help on m110gx

[junior20762003]

Just wondering if anyone has had any issues with the kubota m110gx ... a couple days ago I encountered a problem with the tractor running fine then slowly shutting down all of a sudden as if its bogging down or getting air and if you try to restart it it'll just turn over but if you let it sit for a while it'll restart fine and work properly for 3 to 5 minutes then die out ... i replaced fuel filters and still have the same issue ... even when the tractor shuts off and you check the fuel filter and its full of fuel so i don't think its fuel related ... the tractor has 137 hours on it any help would be appreciated

Maybe fuel solenoid on inj pump is not staying engaged.

My 135GX had a problem from the start with dirt plugging the fuel tank vent hose. I noticed that it had sucked the tank sides in. Kubota sent me a new top fuel tank vent assembly (I live 150 miles from the closest dealer) and while replacing it, I noticed the hose was plugged. This hose actually ends attaching to a tube that I believe goes into the cab rear post for protection. The only way this could have been filled with dirt is if someone, somewhere intentionally did it. It would cause an air lock in the tank resulting in a problem just like you have. You have probably already checked the tank but I thought I would mention it as our tractors are basically the same. I also had a problem similar to yours my first winter - gelled fuel - but you certainly don't have that now. Run for a few minutes, run rough, die. Let sit, try again, repeat.
