I googled the two part numbers I could see in the pictures and the one on the starter comes back - starter for 36 hp Diesel. So, looks like that is certainly a Kubota. Sure hope the cooling system was drained as per the warning decal. And, it sure looks like a project. Paul |

The first order ofthe day is to find a proper engine oil filter. I bought one filter today at Autozone that I thought would fit, but it has a diff. thread pitch on the nipple. Someone at smokstak said that I can find a proper filter at Autozone. |

Yeah. I used to be able to pull the 283 out of my Comet (yep, chevy in a
Ford!) in less than an hour. Of course, I had a LOT of practice. sigh. When I was sixteen, I could have the heads off a 283 Chevy motor in about an hour. Now it takes me that long to change my oil. Steve |

Keep in mind that cars have become a lot more difficult to work on, since you were 18 or 16 etc. My first truck was a '61 Ford F-100 with the 312CID V-8 engine. I could climb over the fender and stand next to the engine during the tuneup, removing the plugs/points/condenser/cap/rotor from the ground on either side. My 2007 Toyota Tundra is a larger pickup but it doesn't have more than 4" of clear space on either side. Additionally, its 4.7L engine is physically smaller than the old 312. I much prefer the newer vehicles. Does anyone here miss working on those damned carburetors?
