    Cub 2182 with Kubota D600 injectors and rough idle.

    Those being out should definitely make a difference..Most I hear is the 3 cylinder Kubotas inherently are going to idle this way regardless..Its just a little annoying when everything shakes on a 2182 cyclops which used to run smooth with the WG600 until I pulled it..The prob I find is trying to...

    Cub 2182 with Kubota D600 injectors and rough idle.

    I got mine from a farmer who had a kwikway for a "yard machine" believe it or not..I had to build the frame to attach it to the under carriage of the 2182 and mount for the pump which I used a universal and home fabbed shaft I made on my lathe directly to the flywheel...It worked out great and...

    Cub Cadet Kubota Diesel injectors..

    Ordered the parts to rebuild the originals..I went with almost "all" new inner components for the 3 of them..Ordered overseas ones also; knockoffs (were here in 4 days) and installed them until these are done. The knockoffs where a mere $38 each and are actually pretty good quality..The diff was...

    Cub Cadet Kubota Diesel injectors..

    Yes but it was always a Mystery to me..All joking aside their is a mechanic on Youtube which goes around making videos of finding junk tractors and cars which have been sitting for as long as 90+ years I think was the oldest one and he gets them started and running...Really fun to watch this...

    Cub Cadet Kubota Diesel injectors..

    Thanks a bunch I almost forgot about this post. I have heard many conflicting opinions on this subject and I just never could see why some indicated the same as well as the differing part#..Yes I realize they are rebuildable but, I had plenty of other projects going so in the mean time I was...

    Cub 2182 with Kubota D600 injectors and rough idle.

    Hello, For years I have been modifying and improving my 2182 Cub. Due to writers cramp I won't get into all the details and mods of which I've done to this little dedicated front loader tractor but I did convert the WG600 platform several years ago to a Kubota D600 swap. Its great and the added...

    The biggest Cub Cadet garden tractor?

    Understood, they are necessary especially in todays or yesterday's era of litigation and stupidity, but to me it was clearly a lack of engineering enthusiasm of someone building/designing these SGT's which caused this problem which was a simple remedy of adding a "relay" and nothing less than a...

    The biggest Cub Cadet garden tractor?

    I mow at full throttle also. However those engineers should have put a relay after all the safety idiot proof switches so we didn't have to do it ourselves in order to start the tractors every time...The brake pedal switch, seat occupancy switch and PTO are all ahead of the starter relay...I...

    The biggest Cub Cadet garden tractor?

    I'm familiar with the low rpm torque made with diesels vs gas and always realized the true measure of importance is "torque" not the calculation of HP..I drove diesels since I was 18 yo on the job as I was a Teamster (retired Pgh FF now) even though never owned one as my own vehicle, spent more...

    The biggest Cub Cadet garden tractor?

    When I first converted my 2182 WG600 25hp cub to a dedicated front loader the WG600 gas had a unbelievable 300+ hrs on it and when that Kwikway loader was all loaded up with a full bucket of dirt/gravel etc and almost 900lbs in counter weight that motor wanted to puke out when I tried to climb...

    Wheel wwights

    They are ridiculous in price anymore ; about $2.50 a Lb on average which is too crazy. I was lucky to find 6 New Holland suitcase weights on craigslist several years ago for $150, they are 57lbs each and fit nicely on a cat 0 3point weight rack which I welded a 3/4" flat bar too and it'll take 2...

    The biggest Cub Cadet garden tractor?

    I love my SGTs and they are just right for the property. Ive done a incredible amount of work with them and they just exceed my expectation for their size. Do things go wrong with them? Ofcourse, but why do I have a work shop and all the tools I've collected throughout my life If I don't get to...

    Wheel wwights

    I made a contraption for my cat 0 3 point to add more weight onto it in addition to the suitcase weights (new holland) and it holds about 150# in steel York Weights I had. It slides into the top of the 3 point and you just stack them on the shaft..Weight is weight...

    The biggest Cub Cadet garden tractor?

    Restored, converted, modified (3) 2182s and the connectors are a huge culprit..Taping them up (water tight) after a redo does the trick and also eliminating them making permanent connections means never having to deal with them again..Also don't forget the infamous lack of relay which should...

    Wheel wwights

    I few years ago I got a good deal on a pair of 100# cast wheel weights, they stick out about 2" beyond the rim and are on my 2182 along with fluid filled 26x14-12 multi-track tires as its a dedicated front loader now. They are a beast to deal with and I never look forward to removing them..I...
