Why is my Kubota Lawn Mower engine difficult to start?

  If the Kubota Lawn Mower engine is difficult to start or won't start, several factors could be at play. First, ensure the fuel valve is in the correct position and that there's sufficient fuel in the tank. Check the fuel filter and replace it if needed. Also, inspect the fuel line coupler bolt and nut to ensure they are tight. If air or water has entered the fuel system, bleed the fuel system. In cold weather, use oil with appropriate viscosity for the ambient temperatures. Lastly, check the battery; clean the cables and terminals, charge it fully, and in very cold conditions, store the battery indoors when not in use.

  If your Kubota Lawn Mower engine overheats, there are several possible causes. First, ensure that you are not overloading the engine; try lowering the speed or reducing the load. Check the coolant level and fill the cooling system to the correct level, inspecting the radiator and hoses for leaks. Inspect the fan belt for damage or looseness, and adjust or replace it as necessary. Remove any debris from the radiator core or grille screens. Finally, if the coolant flow route is corroded, flush the cooling system.

  Darin LaneAug 28, 2025
  If the exhaust fumes from your Kubota Lawn Mower are colored, the causes and solutions vary depending on the color. For black fumes, replace the fuel and fuel filter, check that the oil level is correct, and reduce the engine load. For blue-white fumes, heat the muffler by applying load to the engine, inspect the injection nozzle, and replace the fuel and fuel filter.
