Kubota L210 starter

   / Kubota L210 starter #11  
Had a starter for a Subaru with the same problem... contacts worn in the center... solenoid was engaging, but not passing power... no rebuild kit available, replacement starter was $175?!?... I really needed some copper bar stock, but I was in a pinch, so I took a piece of 1/2 water pipe, flattened it in a vise, then sawed and drilled and bent two pieces to replace both contacts on the starter... I thought because the pipe was not as conductive as bar stock, and because it was two thin pieces squished together, that it would be a temporary fix but here we are two years later, and it's still working! (Hope I'm not jinxing myself!)

This thread interests me, because I just bought an L200...

Thanks,
-Norm.

Just to give everyone and update. I have finally located a replacement starter for the Kubota L210. A John Deere Starter from Utility Tractors model # 5210, 5310, and 5410 with the 2.9L diesel engine is a direct fit. So anyone with the L210 might want to make a note in their service/parts books. For all to know the orignal starter from nippondenso to Kubota was an exclusive contract for this tractor. Parts can no longer be obtained. The Dealer replacement starter is to expensive. The replacement I found this a quarter of the price. Thanks to all that helped me.

Did you have a problem with the cooling connection to the block (interferring)? If so, what did you do? I find the replacement starter has bolts on the outside (that interfere) whereas the original had the bolts internal.

Did you have any problem with the fact the L210 starter has a nine tooth gear and the starter for the 5210 has a 10 tooth gear
