 Kubota RTV Overheating

Hmmmm.... had mine about that long too, but only about 45 hours. I have not seen any over-heating problems, but I agree it could use a few more horses. Have you cleaned the screen in front of the radiator?

I have tried three different sets of tires now. It came with 25 inch HDWP tires which were NOT suitable to my sand dune.

I tried some 27 inch, (205-70x15)left-over passenger car radials but that was too much "overdrive".

Most recently I have acquired a set of 23 inch, OEM turfs.
These seem to be most suited to the power curve of the engine.

Take into consideration that I am operating in somewhat extreme conditions.... 5000 to 7500 feet above sea level.

Art,

I am really liking the OEM Turfs. It sits a little closer to the ground and has a slower top end, but the 23 inch diameter is most agreeable to the power band. The ride was pretty rough until I backed the pressure down to 10 PSI.

Art, have you seen much in the way of optional equipment come through your shop?

I am still looking for a glove box and the turn signal kit.

I would gladly spend some money with you if you had that stuff.

Art, If you can find a turn signal kit and a glove box, I will find a credit card and a phone!

What??

What difference does that make?

I have a metal roof and a windshield. I was hoping to get flashers and an orange triangle for short trips on the pavement.

Somehow, I thought they would incorporate the existing brake lights and not mount the stuff on the roll cage.

But sometimes I don't understand what engineers are thinking...... like when they attached the hood with sticky tape......????!!??

Oh well...... what is the price, Art?
