on my rtv 900 kubota,i have a long ongoing problem with the engine just seeming to suddenly "starve" for fuel,,,,,it just feels like its running out of fuel,and almost shuts off,but,never does,it always recovers,then,it runs for a while and repeats the same problem,it rarely,if ever,does it...

yes,and,i have to yet install the new glow plugs,,,,,,,,,,,

here is a follow up on my rtv 1100 situation,,,,,,,authuritis and everyone else who contributed,,,,,,,i took care of the spark arrester,it was blocked,i gained 2-2.5 mph,on a flat non paved measured strip,i finally found NGK glow plugs,which i did NOT have to buy through kubota,nice savings...

I was hoping to find NGK glow plugs,,,,,ngk is one of the best,,,, but,of course,,,,nobody has them,and nobody can get them,, NAPA handles this brand,but,they are out of stock at the warehouse,sooooo,,,,, back to normal,,,,,go to the kubota dealer and get raped !!!!!!!!!! id love to find another...

you always have good advice,i will do what you recommend,,,i hope to get the new glow plugs today,the next step will be the spark arrester,,,,,i will keep you informed,,,,,,thanks again so much

how about the adjustment of the swash plate? top rear of tranny? in so many threads i read,people always say about when the tranny starts to slip,leave up on the pedal,,,,,,,of course,when i do that,mine goes ok,but,id prefer if i was like my hydro john deere,and no slips,,,when it runs out of...

the engine keeps the revs up,but,the tranny slips,,,,gotta leave up on the pedal,,,,,,,the trannys in these are junk,,, my rtv 900 just takes off when you step on it,no slips,it just goes,,,,,a long somewhat steep grade,the 1100 needs to be in 2nd gear,the rtv 900 in 3 gear,and it just flies,,,,,,,

i just ran my machine,,,,,its somewhat warm here,and i didnt need to preheat it,BUT,,,,,as i rolled it,it started immediantly,and ran for a bit less than a second,then,just died,it didnt completely shut off,but,close,,,,,,still a problem maybe in the fuel system? also,i ran it on a flat ground...

ALSO,,,,,both rear wheels are free,,,,,,speedometer must run off the front axel,nothing registered running with the rear wheels jacked up

i have no clue as to what happed? its not a complicated test,,,,,the first time i checked them,i held the electrode between my fingers,and touched to the positive terminal,it gradually got hot,but,it took 60 seconds to do so,i rechecked them a second time,and for some reason,when touching the...

aurthuritis,,,,, just now pulled the glow plugs out,and hooked up a negative jumper cable to the glow plug housing,then,took the threaded end,and put it agains the positive terminal,,,,,are these supposed to glow red hot after being on for 60 seconds?

AURTHURTIS,,,,its ok,,,,sorry i ramble on and on,but,i have had problelms with this unit every since i purchased it,,,,i have changed every fluid and every filter on this machine,with the exception of the fresh air filter and the a/c filter,,,,,today,i hope to remove the glow plugs and test...

aurthurtis,i dont recall every saying i had an x1100c machine,,all my placard says rtv1100,,,,so,i assume mine is simply a rtv1100? also,thanks so much for your advice

because every time someone contributes a though to me,i brings up a new question for me,,,,,,,,,
