  • The Kubota was leaking coolant again, and I've dealt with this before.while.not a major issue, it's frustrating. Especially when we have the biggest snow storm of the year starting in 3 hours.

    Your video keeps on giving. Unfortunately my 3902 blew one of these hoses yesterday and coolant exploded out of the entire system. Your video explains what happened. Now it's time to figure out how to put it back together.

    I've owned 3 john deere tractors and would never consider any other brand, my model 4100 has never needed serviced in 20 years, I replaced the voltage regulator and battery 8 years ago, other than that it has been perfect. I hope you have good luck with your kubota, and like your videos...thanks

    I watched your video this morning and was thinking that I hadn't had a single issue with my L3301. That'll teach me. Went out to the garage at noon and there was a puddle of coolant under the tractor. Ended up being the top hose clamp by the particulate filter was barely tightened at all. Hope that solves mine and your coolant leaks. Thanks for making this video. Thanks to this I had the problem solved in 10 minutes.

    Congrats on the 1k! That's where I had a leak on my L3901. Found at about 20 hours, though I need to check all the clamps. I haven't noticed anymore coolant puddles, but I think I'm still loosing a bit of coolant.

    I've got a bx23s with 130hrs I've been adding coolant since it was new took it in they said its was a loose hose clamp. The day I got it back used it for 3hrs and had to add coolant I think its burning it I see no leaks anywhere. They said it was not after they kept it 47 days really burn me up.

    Isn’t the tractor still under warranty? Know want to get fixed before storm, but..
    Surprised the loader is only a 525. My old L3650 has a 650 loader.

    • @PheasantLaneFarm
      @PheasantLaneFarm  3 года назад +1

      It's under warranty for a while yet but I try to fix little things if I can. I think they list the lift capacity around 1200 on thr 525. According to a log calculator we've picked up oak logs weighting around 1500 lbs with the grapple. My friend has an tractor with the same loader and his wouldn't lift a pallet of fire wood. Weird how they come different from the factory
