This debate does not make any sense to me.

The Kubota manual for my BX23 clearly indicates on pages 60 and 61 Kubota Super UDT fluid.

I invested $14,900 to buy this machine. I want it to last throughout my lifetime. Why should I now want to save a few dollars on a cheaper, non-specifed lubricant?

You need to replace the fluid every 300 hours on my BX23. About $70 at the current price from my dealer. That is pocket change compared to my initial investment.

For those of you that accepted your Kobota's delivered without the factory specified lubricants, I would demand in writing that those lubricants are superior to what Kubota specifies and that they will honor the warranty even though they delivered the machine out of spec. If your machine fails during the warranty period without the specified lubricants, Kubota has no liability. It will be up to you to force the dealer to pay the cost.

I want to add some work lights to my BX23. However I cannot find any wiring diagrams for this machine. Does anybody have a location for this information?<br>
<br>
Lacking wiring diagrams, does anybody know the purpose of the white wire and connector that sits above the engine?<br>
<br>
The Kubota manual mentions an accessories fuse. Does anybody know what accessories this part of the wiring is intended for? Are there connectors located somewhere on the tractor for these accessories? Is it ignition switched?<br>
<br>
Thanks in advance for any help on the electrical system.<br>

I use a five gallon plastic gasoline container with the drip-proof spout that has a lip that has to be rested on the edge of the fuel tank fill opening in order to open.

Hopefully the plastic used for gasoline containers is also good for diesel fuel. Anybody know?

I own a BX23 so five gallons will refill the tank even if I let it get pretty low.

The good thing is it is a little bit of exercise filling the tank.

The bad thing is forcing yourself to go refill the container after you use it. I was going to buy two of them in order to have an extra refill on hand. But then I know that I would only end up with two empty containers when I need them.

Nothing extra thrown in for the $14,900. When I walked in I was expecting the price to be a good bit higher. So when the salesman wrote down the price on his card, my checkbook leaped out of my pocket. Hard to bargain after that happens.
