My 2018 XG-850-SL starter died yesterday. The old part number from Kubota is E7153-11732 which has been superceed by part # EG881-63010. I am looking for an aftermarket starter because the Kubota retail price for the starter starts at $550 and upwards toward $850.  If anyone has gone down this road before and has found an aftermarket starter ~ please share with me. We own a ranch and this thing is used every single day and is sorely missed when it is down for maintenance.  Kind Regards, ~ Stan

Follow-up ~ I have found that lightly tapping on the starter with a hammer allows it to start.  We live in a dusty ranch environment so it is likely worn brushes and or dust. I can remove the starter, disassemble, and inspect but would like to have an alternative lined up in case it is basically trashed.  I know dust plays a role in the problem because it exhibits a slight squeek when starting. ugh

Don't tap it as you will break the magnets that are glued in the housing and then you will have junk. Clean it and check for worn out bushings!

As a mechanic thats needlessly replaced many rebuildable starters, DO NOT hit it!

Also check, clean and di-electric all battery, solenoid and ground cables before condemning the starter.

      2022 Massimo t-boss 550 timing parts
      By doncaron
      Hello 
      I have a 2022 Massimo t-boss 550. I’m looking for a fix for my timing problem. It keeps getting out of timing. Now I’m trying to find the proper parts for the linhai motor. I’m looking for tensioner chain and gear. If there’s anything else I can do to fix this issue please let me know. Unfortunately I can’t afford to get something better so I got to get it fixed. Thanks in advance.

      2018 Hisun Sector Crew 1000 engine die after about 15 minutes run
      By Hugh
      My 2018 Hisun sector crew engine cut off after about 15 minutes run. There is no indicator of what is wrong, no error code just die and won't restart until it cool down. I notice that the fan is not running but the temp indicator is on low temp, no overheat indicator. I checked the radiator fluid, it is cool to touch.
      Cooling fans are working, I can hear it running once awhile if I can get the engine warm up enough.  Thank you for all the help.
