    slv 90-2

    You must have either the Kubota diagnostic software and the interface box, or there might be an aftermarket solution like a texa laptop and harness. The connector is under the cover behind the right side armrest.

    T300 Bobcat leaking pump

    No need to tear the whole motor down. It's leaking between the brake housing and the main housing. With the motor off the machine, remove the small allen bolts on the backside. Loosen them one turn at a time working your way around the bolt pattern. The cone spring for the brake is under...

    If you just want heat, I believe they offer that as a kit. I know the whole kit, a/c and heat, can be a real PITA

    Bobcat t200- heavy smoke under load

    A little bit of oil in the intake piping is normal due to blowby. You could have a blown head gasket, and with that engine being oil cooled, instant smoke machine.

    Atco, it's somewhat like a loader drive belt, except the engine is on one side of the drive belt housing, and the pumps are on the other side.
