Hello. i am doing some research. it seems like that the block designed for the coolant pump has an extra whole in the front face of the block. it is missing in the thermosyphon version :(

hello, I have a D850 thermosyphoon engine. I come across a front timing cover for the D850 which had a coolant pump. I know I need to source thermostat housings and pump but are they a direct swap? (From non pump cooled to being pump cooled? Are there any variations in the engine cooling...

hello The adaptors arrived today. the mounting plate looks flimsy but if I push on with the idea (find time) I will fabricate something better. The two bolts at the side are for oil pressure and oil temperature senders Should I decide to install them. I did fit a pressure gauge but i had to...

Thanks for the input. I have always been a bit concerned about the coolant pump with no stat in it. But it keeps temps at around 85 degrees when under heavy load for long stretches. as said The oil filter relocation is purely to help make it easy to change it. I will think about a good...

Sorry it is late to test this. I went out and got myself another battery a Steco Power (french/Asian brand) 45AH and 400Amps. It is difficult to find a better option here with higher AH... these are batteries found on 1000cc japanese petrol cars. all the extra circuits for a work lamp and 3...

After start up at idle it is 12.80V and slowly increases to 13.35 at mid range rpm. After a 15 minutes work with tiller at full rpm it...

hi sorry very busy and tired here and been away greatly. the dimensions I used were supplied in this thread and then a lot of guess work. The hydraulics were bought off ebay.co.uk to match.

hi sorry to bump in, given that the B7001 has 5-12 on the front and the B7100 has 6-12 on the front it means that there is a ratio change somewhere. Anyone can tell whether it is in the front axle/ its final drives or the gearbox? thank you.

Hello. I have a low hours D850 engine in the garage. i always thought it would be 18/19 hp, according to searches online. It came off a rice harvester but no idea which in order to reassure myself. It has clear casting of "855cc" on the engine side. Now I am reading about the B1502 model and it...

I am wondering if there are any members here from Europe (mainland) looking for a spare kubota b7001 in any condition. even without an engine. Thank you.

hello all, The orange bug is haunting me again. I am interested in buying a second B series. A B7001E 4x2, how complicated is it to convert it into 4x4. Are the4x4 driving components in the gearbox missing on the B7001E or the gearbox is the same as the 4x4 counterpart requiring just the front...

I am wondering if someone could help me determine the age of my tractor :) it is a zennoh or b7001 model. Its number is B7001-44430 or b7001-44280 The 3 and 8 is not a clear. When I used the tractor data website to search for the B7001 it showed up as 1976-1979... but it has a confusing picture...
