How to troubleshoot starting difficulties in Kubota Excavators?
- VvangbradleyJul 28, 2025
If your Kubota Excavator is having starting difficulties, several factors could be the cause. The fuel may be too viscous; in this case, check the fuel tank and filter, remove any impurities and water, and replace the filter if necessary. There might be air or water in the fuel system; remove water from the fuel tank and check fuel pipe joint bolts and nuts for looseness. Also, the oil viscosity might be too high, especially in winter; pour hot water over the radiator or use oils of different viscosities depending on the ambient temperature, such as SAE10W, SAE10W-30, or SAE10W-40. Finally, a nearly dead battery or insufficient compression can cause starting issues; try recharging the battery.
