Mouser electrics has them

A simple fix for exhaust breaking problems is to adjust your base idle up or down until the engine stops skaking.

Kubota offers a remanufactured hst. I did a search for used parts online and found several being parted out but all in the usa. You might try contacting them to see if they will ship to you.

The pump or rotating valve assembly as kubota call it is an assembly only....but there is a member of this group has in his opinion successfully replaced damaged plungers with parts from a used ebay purchase. The bores in his valve block were undamaged.

Thank you. Was the bearing disc seized?

Will you please inform us as to how many oil services on the hst in it's lifetime? And what kind of oils used? Was there any other failed parts in the hst other than wear on the rotating valve? Thanks

Get some powerservice diesel additive and treat your gas tank according to directions. Drain the sediment bowl and replace fuel filter. Put fresh diesel in your gas tank. There is a red silicone sheild that kubota owes you under a recall that should protect your alternator and park your...

Perfect example. And probably the cause of most hst failures in the rtv. Actually long hard work for hours a day will extend the life of the oil.

On those old models there was a small shock absorber attached to the hst throttle cable that was supposed to let the linkage return slowly. Unfortunately this will either get sloppy and the wheels will stop suddenly throwing you through the window. There are two methods for cure. Either develop...

Try operating the electric over hydraulic unit with the engine off to see if maybe its a relay buzzing?

I would check the fan on the front of the engine that it isn't coming in contact with a shroud. Also since you added a driveshaft from the crank forward i would make sure it isn't loose in it's mounting or something.

Take the shock absorber thingy attached to the peddle cable and throw it away. Then get a coast valve.

Jack up the back both tires off of the ground. Start machine and put in high gear let idle. Confirm the hst speed lever is in the correct position. If the wheels are spinning even just little adjust the sevo centering screw until the wheels just begin to spin the opposite direction and then...

On the x1100c the oil cooler sits in front of the fan so no water. And the gearbox is independent and is its own reservoir. Do you use a power washer on your machine? There are vents on both the gearcase and the hst tank and the hst itself. They could be cracked or torn

The swash plate comes off with the cover.
