What causes high oil pressure in Kubota SM-E3B Engine?
If your Kubota Engine has high oil pressure, it could be due to using a different type of oil (use specified type of oil) or a defective relief valve (replace).
Why is water mixed into lubricant oil in my Kubota SM-E3B?
If water is mixed into the lubricant oil in your Kubota Engine, it could be due to a defective head gasket (replace) or a flawed cylinder block or cylinder head (replace).
Why my Kubota Engine does not start?
If your Kubota Engine doesn't start, several factors could be the cause. It might be due to no fuel, which requires you to replenish it. Alternatively, there might be air or water in the fuel system, in which case you should bleed the system or change the fuel and repair/replace the fuel system, respectively. Other potential issues include a clogged fuel hose (clean or replace), a clogged fuel filter (replace), or excessively high viscosity of fuel or engine oil at low temperature (use specified fuel or engine oil). It may also be caused by fuel with a low cetane number (use specified fuel), a fuel leak due to a loose injection pipe retaining nut (tighten the retaining nut), or incorrect injection timing (adjust). In more serious cases, the fuel camshaft could be worn (replace), the inject...
