    Would There Be Interest? ‘16 Kubota 1100C

    I'm interested in it for your $10 range. :) Just kidding. Location? Condition? Options/accessories? I would check these sites to see what what they're going for. https://www.tractorhouse.com/listings/for-sale/kubota/rtv-x1100c/farm-equipment...

    RTV900 slow going up hill

    Agreed. When climbing steeper hills, the engine bogs down. Let off the go pedal to about 1/2 way and an aux pump kicks in. You'll get your RPM's and power back but at a reduced speed. Are you using OEM filters and SUDT hyd fluid? RTV's don't like the aftermarket stuff. I see you're in...

    855 hood assistance

    Welcome to the forum. Not sure I'm mentally seeing your issue. Does your tractor hood look like what's pictured below? If so, the ones I'm familiar with (but they don't have a cab) have hinges near the dash and a looped rod in the front to hold it open.

    RTV Daily uses, What did you do today with your RTV?

    Glad you're loving your machine! These things just sip fuel. You can go a long time on a tank. My fuel gauge is broken but I'd guess you could get about 15 engine hours on a tank without issue.

    Lower Center of Gravity MF2615

    What is RHS? When you say "front blade", do you mean a blade or a loader? If it's just a blade, why do you need to lower the center of gravity? Since you've already filled your tires (good idea), can't you just add a ballast box to your 3-point hitch and/or some suitcase weights to the front...

    2011RTV 900 vin number problem.

    On the left side of the machine, on the frame under the bed there may be a plate that looks like this. The "Product Identification Number" is the VIN. Being across the pond, that plate may not exist. You may need to find a plate that looks like this. "Identification Number" is the VIN...

    wheel weights

    Welcome to the forum and congrats on getting a tractor. Myself, I'd avoid wheel weights and just get your rear tires filled with liquid ballast. You're in Colorado so go with something that can tolerate the cold. I'd suggest Rim Guard. https://www.rimguardsolutions.com/

    What is DPF?

    DEF, DPF (not familiar with this), but they all suck. DEF has been nothing but problems for every diesel engine owner I know that has it. A friend did a DEF delete on his diesel Chevy truck. Costs him around $3500 as I recall but he now has about 50 more horsepower and he gets something like...

    Radio recommendation for RTV1100

    I'll pile on about the Marshall being great speakers. I have the Emberton which is a step down from the Middleton and it does great. The JBL offerings are really good as well.

    Hot enough for ya?

    I think I mentioned in a different thread about a large maple tree falling on one of my buildings. There's another large one overhanging it that I'm not going to risk it falling, so I'm about to cut it down. Right now I'm chaining it up (which requires ladder climb and dragging hundreds of...

    I use Fluid Film. Works on just about everything. ;)

    Mahindra 5005 Starting Issue

    So, if you run jumper cables from the battery to the starter solenoid, it starts every time, right? I've encountered a similar situation a couple times on my tractor. In both cases, there was internal corrosion on the battery cables. Can't be seen from the outside. You're getting enough to...

    I do the same in beer. ;)

    Hot enough for ya?

    Our temps are just a little bit lower than yours but still too damn hot for me.

    Radio recommendation for RTV1100

    I don't have an enclosed cab but I've always used marine radios. They're made to take more abuse (pounding/bouncing, water and elements) compared to an automotive radio. It's been almost 15 years since I last bought one but Boss brand was a lot of bang for your buck.

    STI rim/tube valve stem

    I can't help for your situation but I've had leaky tires on my RTV and just asked a tire shop to fix it (and they did).

    Here's a "Talk About Anything" - II

    I'm going to burn a little of it to see if it burns like gas or like ethanol.

    Here's a "Talk About Anything" - II

    Well, according to Sta-Bil, it's not them. Here's their response. "Based on the info provided, STA-BIL products would dissipate within the fuel causing no change in fuel color. As long as STA-BIL was used by the treat rate recommended on the packaging, it would not sink to the bottom of the...

    Here's a "Talk About Anything" - II

    I just contacted Sta-Bil via e-mail and waiting for their reply. I'm guessing at this point that it is their products that never mixed in and settled to the bottom of the tank. Many years ago, I used both their red and blue products just to get the cans off my shelf since they were getting old...

    Here's a "Talk About Anything" - II

    Steel tank. I don't know if the inside is painted or bare. I contacted SeaFoam to see if their additive may have settled (it's clear out of the bottle). Haven't used Sta-Bil in years but I wonder if there's any residue of that in the bottom. Now that I think about it, years ago, I used the...
