Never did post a pic of the 1140 in the wild. When I bought it also was given a brand new windshield that I also threw in to the guy that bought it off me. Didn’t install it because some people around here like the 25mph wind in their hair haha

Damn.. Maybe I could have squeezed more $$$ out of it. Had 1225hrs and 8000 miles so fairly low. Doc see my other thread in here I also scored a 2017 RTV-X900 with this issue…

We’ll it could have been much worse. Rod is bent and piston was hitting the crankshaft counter weights. Cylinder ok just needs surface hone Crank shaft journals ok Still waiting to hear back from machine shop and I really need to inspect this block well to make sure there’s no cracks in it

And she’s gone… Off to do more work on a 100 acre farm. Posted on CL for $16k sold in less than an hour for $15k Hawaii prices may be different than the mainland things tend to sell for higher out here.

Don’t be sorry. When you get these things for dirt cheap gotta expect some bigger repairs. I’m interested to see the condition of the crankshaft journal.

That’s what I’m suspecting. Also the reason I took the head and head gasket into the machine shop today. I’m also gonna attempt to pull the engine without removing the gear case and the HST 🤞🏽

Update: So I narrowed the white smoke down to Cyl3 cracked the fuel line and smoke went away. Low compression not firing. Pulled the cylinder head and found slight coolant on the inside of valve cover and inside the intake manifold. Pistons are proud of the deck on 1 and 2 Piston on 3 never...

Just wanted to update everyone. The transmission has been operating flawlessly for a few weeks now. Running a high pressure of 3700-3800 psi I’m very happy with the outcome.

That seems like the best first step. Is the D902 engine common for having nozzle/injector issues?

So far I have not added any water yet and the radiator seems to still be full. The first time I started it white smoke and knocking then the smoke went away but the knocking was still there. Second time I started the machine white smoke and knocking stayed all the way till it warmed up and I...

I was thinking water too but… It’s not pushing water out of the radiator. It’s not boiling in the overflow and the temps seem to be stable. It does smell more like fuel than a sweet coolant smell we use 50/50 here in Hawaii. Black soot in the tailpipe This is a machine we picked up in an...

2017 Kubota RTV-X900 1100 hrs I’m having this issue the engine will fire right up. It’s billowing white smoke out the exhaust pipe and knocking very loud. Also seems to be running rough. Wondered if anyone else has had this issue and what should I check first with these symptoms? Thank you

Parts came in got excited and didn’t snap any pics before I closed the unit up. Will be installing and testing tomorrow 🤞🏽

Do you know what the Tuff Torq model number is for the HST? That just shows a Kubota part number.

Wow that is a lot! Have you drained the gearbox fluid and inspected that? Mine had a lot of micro metal almost looked like break in material.

2018 X1140 1225 hrs 8000 miles

When you say high hour and mileage what does this machine have? I posted a thread with similar failure. My machine has 1225 hrs and 8000 miles. I got all the parts I needed from messicks for right under $1000

Here’s the parts list should cover everything to get this unit built and back in the machine.

-If your thrust bearing races and roller/cage are in great shape having the face that touches the pistons lapped/machined is an option that can save you hundreds of dollars. -The port block and valves are very clean no scoring or any debris in the block surprisingly.

Some more tear down pics and cleaning for inspection. -High pressure pump and valve plate need replaced -Pump thrust bearing top face will be machined bearing is fine -Pump swash plate assy will be replaced pieces of metal gouged the ramp -Charge pump body will need lapped at machine shop very...
