RTV Engine Oil Color

This may be a diesel question rather than just RTV.

I noticed that the engine oil in my 1120D turned black not long after changing. In my gasoline vehicles, the oil stays like honey until it has many hours on it. I just wanted to know if this is normal. If this happened in a gas engine so quickly, I would assume it needs a flush and maybe has some sludge.

Dome light switch

I installed a door jam switch to operate the dome light today on my 2018 X1100C. Now when I open the door my dome light comes on. The light is set up to come on by the ground being switched so this was an easy hack.

RTV 900 Floor Panel & Inner Fender Well

I recently bought a 2009 RTV 900. Probably paid too much for it but I've been looking at them for some time and finally pulled the trigger.

Cab, heat, hydraulics - everything works - which is great. I knew it had some rust issues so before mounting the plow I stripped the front end down to the frame to investigate. It wasn't terrible - not nearly as bad as I have seen elsewhere - and someone did a decent repair job some years ago.

However, the inner fender wells and floor pan need to be...

Kubota RTV x1100c LED Light Bar

I've had my RTV x1100c for a few months now and I love it. I finally got around to adding some LED light bars. I searched quite a bit and found tons of different types, sizes, and mounting concepts from other people. I went with a 42" led (I think 960 W) on the front and two 4" floods (I think 54 W a piece) on the back. All came from Ebay. Some guys at work helped me with a mount for the front led. We came up with more of an "L" shape bracket that we bent to kind of conform to the curve of...

Kubota RTV issues with transmission

Last year we couldn't fiqure out what was wrong. Linkage was fine, the fluids all fine, I changed filters in it I even pressure washed it. Did you know that it takes hydraulic/transmission fluid in 3 places? One place I know for a fact I didn't because I would've never dreamt of it. But when its low, the transmission is in back, but the oil goes in towards the front. I will send pics. But it started getting slower, would pull up hills, struggled to get it in and out of 4 wheel drive. Then it...

Raised Cab Excavator

I suppose this is old news to a lot of you but I'd never heard of or seen one till yesterday. One was working along the side of the road working on the hillside. The cab was way up in the air. Unreal. Higher than the one in this pic. I could not stop and get a pic as it was in the middle of one lane road we had to wait to go through, no stopping.

Rtvx1100c rear axle seal

First post, hope to find some insight before I dive into this. Last winter I did a full filter and fluid service on my Rtv x1100c. Late this summer I noticed oil on the driveway. Appears to be dripping from right cv shaft at the rear differential. I have a service manual that doesn't mention seals at all. Parts book and owner manual. From the parts book the seal that I think is my bad one Appears to be a standard lip seal like what would be found on inner wheel seal of a car.

Diesel Fuel Filtering

I was new to diesel when I got the BX2230 and then the X1120D.

I had to buy a couple of new fuel containers, yellow so that my lovely Mrs and the kids did not accidentally put the wrong fuel in the right tank.

When I get a new fuel can, I rinse it with water thoroughly and let it dry upside down in the sun. Once it is completely dry, I install the ezflow high volume spout and its vent. Once that is done, to insure nothing fell into the tank, I hit it with a little compressed air and...

RTV 1100 will not go into 4WD

Hello All-- I was out plowing this morning and my rtv slipped out of 4WD and would not re-engage. I have had issues since owning this RTV (i am the 2nd owner and got it with around 1600hrs) where the 2wd/4wd engagement lever would fall down and disengage 4wd to the point where I normally have to shove something against the lever to keep it in place while plowing.

I recently adjusted the tension on the lever in hopes of resolving this issue but it didnt make much of a difference and would...

Strange staring issue

Troubleshooting for a friend Kubota rtv x1100c.

They were having issues with it randomly shutting off when they were using it. Said it would run fine for a couple hours and then randomly just shut off.
Said if they left it a couple hours or overnight it would usually restart.

Problem is now it won't start at all.

Found out they had accidently put gasoline in several weeks ago, but had drained the system and refilled with diesel.

It will fire after a fair bit of cranking but only run...

counter weight

Seasons Greetings!
I came across this weight in a trade. It was originally a counter weight from a powered hand truck. It weighs 720# and I have used it on my 3 point on my L3200 with a draw bar. I like the weight but I'd rather not have it swinging back there. Does anyone have suggestions as to incorporating it into the top link to stabilize it? It's probably the most weight I've seen in such a small package 17"x 12"x 11" Thanks in advance

Relief valve poppet

I have a 2010 kubota rtv 1100k worksite model, and was wondering if anyone knew if there is supposed to be a spring that goes over the valve poppet on the relief valve? The poppet was rusted up, and I buffed it nice and smooth and it slides in and out nice now. But it doesn't seem to move when I'm applying brakes, and the cables and spring are good, and the plate that pushes the poppet in has the correct spacing. When driving it feels like the brakes are on, and you really have to get on it...

What a difference a year makes!

Howdy folks
Today was my first plowing of the season. Last season was pretty snowy so I had to plow a lot. I froze my tail off plowing with the gator. This time around I put the same plow on my 1100 and what a breeze. After 5 minutes I had ti take off the hat, gloves and coat. The heater is awesome! I went with a 66" plow for the JD but a 72" would have been better on the Kubota. Sometimes it's good to spoil yourself. Stay warm my friends.

I tried to start it will turn over and try to start it seems to fire up but dies instantly. Try after that and there seem to be no power to the starter.

Played with the shifter and pedal but nothing wait a couple of hours it will try the same thing but nothing or nothing will happen at all.
