I just finished reading a post by gatoraider from nov of 2010. in that tread which is similar to mine the problem was condensation.He also mentioned that different oil types could create more or less condensation. I just recently changed the oil using a 15-40 delo 400el. As gatoraiders responses have helped my past problems with this gator, i again yield to his wisdom. lol

Bobs please forgive me on this but the first time I saw the title you gave this I chuckled then and still do. The idea of a Tractor race and it running away in it was what still comes to my mind. I know that does not help you, unless the purse is rather large for such. lol

Yes, Farm King Finish Mowers are very good mowers. I work for Barnes Implement a company that sells Farm King mowers and parts. I hear tons of positive feedback on these mowers. There are customers who have had their mower for 20 years and are very happy. I have seen this post pop up several times in online search and thought I would help with some information. Check out our site and give us a call. We are always happy to help with any questions.

We have six utvs. Only the Mules seem to engage smoothly. Our new Deere 550 is the worst offender. I have found that easing into the accelerator very slowly seems to help. It only has about 100 hrs and has been this way since new. Our old diesel gator 6x4 jumps too, especially with the responsive torquey Yanmar engine. If your gator is a gas engine, sometimes a valve adjustment can help. This may sound odd, but if the valves are a little too tight, or even in spec on the tight side, the engine can be more sensitive to initial accelerator movement. Also harder to start. I tend to run valves this way for better performance, but some of my peers, with just as much experience, will always set to the loose side of the spec. This is actually safer for the valves, as it's when the exhaust valve is fully seated that it can transfer heat to the cylinder head. But I digress. If your clutches are not actuating smoothly, a rebuild might be in order. It's a bit of a pain, but keeping them in shape with small wear parts might avoid total replacement down the road. I'm eager to see other suggestions too.

It should be able to be fixed without removal of the engine. On some models of tractors do to fuel tanks it might be easier to split the tractor to remove the head easier.

Wow, thx for your reply!. I needed validation for my instinct to replace the belt. My guess is the clutches need attention as well. Eventually I'd like to replace the 4-wheel drive function on it. As a 2-wheel drive unit it ain't bad though. I paid 1000.00 for it. I don't think I got took😎
I also have a 2002 Yamaha Big Bear so it's not the only thing I have for chores...Thank you for your support friend...

fishy1, See my post below, "CX Choke Revisited". You have a idle circuit problem. The holes/passages are tiny, take the carb apart and soak it overnight.

I know this is an old thread.
Check the hose that connects the pick up line to the pump.
On my 2510, it had a pin hole that sucked air into the pump.
it made the oil look like it had water in it.
I ran oil out from the control to a jar. Closed the lid.
after setting overnight, was clear, no water.
If the pump is sucking air, it can make things not work.

First, check the fuel shut off at the tank.
Second, check that the shut off pull is connected correctly.
It could be that it is holding the lever to shut off instead of run when pushed in (yours may be different than mine.)

May be helpful if you do not have it.
Next, l would be inclined to check the lift pump and filters. It could be that the lift pump is not getting fuel to the injector pump. There is a 13 mm bolt on top of the fuel filter, crack it or remove it (I had to remove it on my 2510).
Crank the tractor (I used a remote starter button so I could watch the filter) until clear diesel comes out. Close the bolt.
Once you have the lift pump and filters working, bleed the injector lines.
Do this by cracking the lines at the injector (all of them), turn over the motor until you get clear fuel with no bubbles. Then tighten up the fuel line nuts.

Be careful about how long you crank the engine. Give enough time to cool off between crankings, and do not crank longer than 15 seconds.

Please let us know how it goes!

I am looking at the "V" blade as a secondary thought. I have located a welding shop in Canada but they have not replied back. Apparently they make conversion kits for many models.

Have done nothing out of the ordinary. Just noticed oil leaking on the ground not long after starting to work. It then seemed to stop leaking when warmed up. It happened again not long after starting then stopped. I investigated by removing the seat and plate. I then started it up and operated the rear hydraulics and it bubbled out of this plug. What is this plug? Why is it there? Is this a safety valve? What normally would cause this. Can't remember when the filter was changed but nothing done to cause any change.

An update in case others have these problems. I finally took fuel injector out and had tested at a diesel repair shop. It was OK. They also said these little in line injectors are a bear to purge. They gave me some tips on how to do it. They also said even after presumably getting all the air cleared, it takes a pretty goot turn over to get the fuel pushed up through the injectors. So I reinstalled fuel injector and, following their instructions, loosened the connection to the fuel line, just loosened, not removed. I ten turn on ignitioned and the fuel pump forces fuel to squirt out the top, presumable forcing out any residual air lurking in the fuel injector. After I did this and retightening connection, I tried starting....no go. I finally had a neighbor come over and give me some advise. He has commercial tractors. He watched the attempted starting and remarked that the starter was really anemic and the battery was not turning the engine over sufficiently, even with jumping from my pick up. I decided to buy a new battery. Installed new battery and, whalla!, the tractor started right up. So my problem was clogging from fuel sitting all winter, plugged filter, failing fuel pump, traces of air in fuel injector and finally insufficient amps to starter to get fuel pushed up to injectors.

I too am glad nothing was broken and I am really glad you posted that picture.

That picture will be a handy thing to refer to whenever a problem of this nature comes up in the future!

Last year I was in the market for a 60 gal air compressor. I did my internet homework and discovered that all of those discount 60 gal compressors are all made in China by the same company and come with terrible reviews (look at the Loews reviews for their Kobalt model). Long story short, I wanted quality and found a Canadian Company that sells "made in canada" air compressors! Couldn't believe it, so I bought one. So far its fantastic and definately of high quality components, such as a Marathon motor (Mexico), Square D pressure switch (USA) and good welds with a nice paint job. Yes, it cost me $300-400 more than the comparable Chinese compressor, but it works and factory tested before shipping. My air hoses are Good-Year, my connectors Milton, both made in the USA. And, using Amsoil synthetic compressor oil (USA). You can find North American tools, you just have to look hard for them and pay an extra premium...but you won't be disappointed.
