Kubota tin Head gasket

[Dave W]

As the bickering couple were debating, are Kubota prone to cracked heads? One neighbors bobcat cracked his,one the other side cracked the one on his Kubota utv. Maybe coincidence.

A lot get fitted to big ride on mower where they are worked hard in summer and inevitably the rad can get blocked with clippings.
Cracked heads very common on mowers

I’m sure a lot of these issues stem from cold engines being started and put to work instantly and stopped when finished working and never allowed to warm up or cool down.

And on kubota ride on all you've got to do is remove the screen in front of the rad and tap the stuff off it now again

Its not uncommon nowadays for heads to be matched to blocks rather than both made to perfection. It could be you're block isn't perfect. Or the head maybe isn't made quite as good as it needs to be, there can be very little tolerance on mls gaskets.
