How to troubleshoot a Kubota D1703-M-E3BG Engine that is difficult to start?
- BbarryriosAug 6, 2025
If your Kubota Engine is difficult to start, several factors could be the cause. It could be due to insufficient compression caused by leaking valves, which would require replacing them. The issue might also stem from an insufficient fuel supply, necessitating a check of the fuel system. Overheating moving parts could also be the culprit, indicating a need to inspect the lubricating oil system. Alternatively, the valve clearance may not be properly set; in this case, adjust it to between 0.18 and 0.22 mm (0.007 to 0.087 in.) while the engine is cold.
