Why is my Kubota Lawn Mower engine difficult to start?

  Elizabeth MorrisAug 6, 2025
  Difficulty starting your Kubota Lawn Mower engine can stem from several causes: a lack of fuel flow (check the fuel tank and filter, replacing the filter if needed), air or water in the fuel system (ensure the fuel line coupler bolt and nut are tight, bleed the fuel system), increased oil viscosity in winter (use oils with different viscosities based on ambient temperatures), or a weak battery (clean battery cables and terminals, charge the battery, and in cold weather, remove, charge, and store the battery indoors, installing it only when use is imminent).

  Kerry PearsonAug 12, 2025
  If your Kubota Lawn Mower engine overheats, it could be due to several reasons. The engine might be overloaded, in which case you should lower the speed or reduce the load. Alternatively, the coolant level might be low, requiring you to fill the cooling system to the correct level and check for leaks in the radiator and hoses. A loose or defective fan belt could also be the culprit, necessitating adjustment or replacement. A dirty radiator core or grille screens can impede cooling, so remove any debris. Finally, a corroded coolant flow route may be the issue, in which case you should flush the cooling system.

  Insufficient engine power in your Kubota Lawn Mower can be caused by insufficient or dirty fuel. Check the fuel system. It can also be caused by a clogged air cleaner. Clean the element.

Why are exhaust fumes colored on my Kubota GZD15-II LD Lawn Mower?
- G
  Glenn ArnoldAug 31, 2025
  Colored exhaust fumes from your Kubota Lawn Mower can indicate different issues. Black fumes suggest you should change the fuel and fuel filter, check the oil level, and reduce the engine load. Blue-white fumes suggest you should heat the muffler by applying load to the engine, check the injection nozzle, and change the fuel and fuel filter.
