Welcome to TractorByNet!

We moved your thread to the Kubota Owning & Operating forum.

Assuming you checked the air cleaner also.....maybe.... check for a governor malfunction, injection pressure, injection nozzle clogged, injection pump malfunction. I reference the kubota trouble shooting guide in the WSM.

Where are you getting/keeping your fuel?

Is your lift pump operating?

You thought you had fuel issues, why? Did you drain the tractors fuel tank before refilling? What additive did you add?

Double check your air filter / air intake.

May want to test for gasoline in the fuel.

Sure sounds like a fuel issue. If you already changed the filters and fuel, I'd suspect you have a blockage at the fuel pickup point in the tank. May have to drain it and try cleaning it out with a shop vac.

Thinking along the same lines!

Had a similar problem with by bx23--finally figured out that the seat wasnt locked in the correct position which caused a similar problem--sounds simplistic but make sure its not that. The test for this is that it revs fine but dies when you try to use the forward/ reverse pedal.

You changes both fuel filters right? There are two.

Weird. The OP made his first post asking for help, hasn't come back apparently, and now his name is not "clickable". Did he de-register or something? I've noted this before, but when Briana moves posts, particularly initial posts, it seems a majority of the time the OP never posts back. I have to assume they can't find their initial post and assume it was deleted. Also, unlike most other forums, TBN does not leave a link to the original post with an annotation that it was "Moved". Most other sites leave that link so you can click it and bring up the new thread in the new forum. Why not here?? I have to think TBN looses a lot of new members as a result of how they administer "moved" posts.
