Why is my Kubota M6-101-M6-111 Tractor losing power?
If your Kubota Tractor engine lacks power, make sure you have sufficient, clean fuel and address a clogged air cleaner by cleaning or replacing the element. Also, ensure that the DEF/AdBlue® tank is filled.
What to do if my Kubota Tractor engine stops suddenly?
If your Kubota Tractor engine stops suddenly, first ensure you have enough fuel and refuel if necessary; bleed the fuel system to remove any air. Also, make sure that the DEF/AdBlue® tank is filled.
How to troubleshoot starting issues with a Kubota M6-101-M6-111 Tractor?
If your Kubota Tractor engine is difficult to start, begin by checking the fuel tank and fuel filter, replacing the filter if needed. Also, ensure the fuel line coupler bolt and nut are tight and bleed the fuel system to remove any air or water. In cold conditions, consider using oils with different viscosities or an engine block heater. Weak batteries can also be a culprit, so clean the battery cables and terminals, charge the battery, and store it indoors during cold weather. For M6-101 and M6-111 models, inspect the intake air heater system, checking the slow blow fuse and the heater's function. For M6-131 and M6-141 models, examine the preheat (glow plug) system, looking at the slow blow fuse and glow plug functionality in cold weather.
What to do if a Kubota Tractor engine overheats?
If your Kubota Tractor engine is overheating, possible causes include the engine being overloaded (shift to a lower gear or reduce the load), low coolant level (fill the system and check for leaks), a loose or defective fan belt (adjust or replace it), a dirty radiator core or grille screens (remove any debris), or a corroded coolant flow route (flush the system and check if the fan drive is on, if equipped).
Why are the exhaust fumes colored on my Kubota M6-101-M6-111?
If the exhaust fumes from your Kubota Tractor are black, it might be due to poor fuel quality, too much oil, or a clogged air cleaner. Try changing the fuel and fuel filter, checking the oil level, and cleaning or replacing the air filter. If the fumes are blue-white, the exhaust muffler might be damp with fuel, there could be an issue with the injection nozzle, or the fuel quality might be poor. Check the intake air heater function in cold weather, heat the muffler by applying load to the engine, inspect the injection nozzle, and change the fuel and fuel filter.
