Okay that does sound like good newws I'll print this off and show it to the shop when I take it in. Im thinking Ill try the haevevier oil til the season is over and take it in in the winter. Thanks everyone!

Not in my " religion" they don't make them like this anymore. A new one is over $7000. I can have this perfect for a lot less.

I will send all the moel numbers and ser # when I get a chance

Thanks all. I am not confident opening up the engine and diagnosing all that etc. So I'll look In to a predator or other vertical shaft option. It looks like the 16 hp is no longer and option. There's an 18hp I'll make sure it fits, will that extra hp stress the rest of the machine?

I have a really great kubota 16 horse lawn tractor. 21 years old , I keep it in great shape, runs and works like new. The Kohler engine is burning a little oil and starting to get worse. What ballpark $ would a quality ring job set me back? At an independent shop. And what else should be...

I replaced the carb on this engine 143.984001 The engine runs great but only at super high rpm. Has a side trottle with a turtle and a rabbit. I have a linkage from the throttle lever to the governor, there appears to be no linkage control the speed of the engine. I may have lost the throttle...

Funny story, read all the way through... Okay, so I did all the drainng, filling, pumping, burping multiple times. No good. Funny story! I junked it and bought a new Torin MC jack at pep boys. The price was $ 134.95. I dragged it up to the register, I just had shoulder surgery. I say to the...

That's a start. I drain and fill again. I have an email into the manufacturer.

I have a torin mc jack. After 5 + years it started to drift down under load. So I got the manual and figured it needed bled. So I decided to change the oil since I was working on it. I drained all the jack oil, as instructed. Then I refilled the jack on its side.... a no no i found out. And of...

So I have a Kubota 1670. 21 yrs old. The replacement is between $6000 to $7000. My machine runs and performs like brand new. The mower deck was rusting out, so for $300 i had the deck patched, I replaced a few pulleys and bearings. Another $100. And for another $20 I painted the underside of the...

So, thanks for all the replies. I decided to go with mixing with equal parts of 0 20 synthetic. Don't like slinging oil w my chainsaw!

I changed the hydrostatic drive oil 20 50 today and have 2.5 qts leftover. Can I use this for bar/chain oil on my chainsaw? How about mixing it with 5 20 and adding it to my mixed oil batch for my small engine... getting it to say 10 40 ish? I won't use this for its intended use for many years.

It's a V6.

Yup!

Okay, I'm probably going to take it to a shop. I am getting too crippled and old to do it myself. I used to though and loved it. Age and arthritis catches up when you're not looking. Thanks for the reply.

So even a cheap new filter is better than pushing it with an old filter. If $5 to $8 is too much to ensure from engine failure then maybe you need to rethink... I have a brother that felt that not changing the oil filter on a late model Volvo he bought new was a waste of money as long as he...

So yeah, the battery bit the dust. I can't complain, 7 years that's good life. I did not replace the rectifier, just the battery. All good, beware of advice from someone who can profit from following their advice.

Oh yeah I love the car, but don't want to pay for a new tranny.
