I have had a 2003 BX2200 Kabota for 5 years. With the backhoe attachment and front loader, I have used it maybe twice a year. It has 553 hours on it. It has worked fine for about 3 hours at a time, them struggled to maintain power. An auction came up and when I loaded it onto the trailer, the nipple on the "out" side of the fuel pump cracked. I bought a fuel pump at a local parts store and it would not run ( but would try to start). I then ordered an aftermarket and had the same issue. Finally I ordering the $161.50 fuel pump from kabota, the tractor fired up and I ran it for 20 minutes. During this same period, the fuel cap failed and the center of it fell into the tank. All four nipples on the fuel tank broke off and I drilled and tapped new brass fittings into each of these. The fuel kill solenoid has been failing for years. I cut off the pin for now, and left the pigtail disconnected until the new kill solenoid comes in. It would work great when the engine was cool, but after it warmed up the kill solenoid would burn your finger if you touched it. When you place the key switch in the start mode, the pin would detract. In the run position, the pin would stay retracted. When key was in the off position, the power would shut off holding the pin inside the solenoid and a loud click could be heard as the pin sprang out to shut the fuel off. After I turned it off, it would not restart. All four nipples on the fuel tank broke off after I placed it in the auction and the fuel tank seems to produce water. I have drained and vacuumed out the fuel tank 3 times. How water continues to get in there I beyond my understanding. I didn't sell this tractor at the auction. The best bid was 5750. I saw the backhoe attachment for sale by itself for 5K and the bucket for 3K. I want to get this tractor running right. I couldn't stand to give it away. My parts (operator, parts and service manual, kill solenoid, all filters and oil, and key switch) should be in soon and I will persevere. Any thoughts would be appreciated.

Today's Featured Article - Third Brush Generators - by Chris Pratt. While I love straightening sheet metal, cleaning, and painting old tractors, I use every excuse to avoid working on the on the electrics. I find the whole process sheer mystery. I have picked up and attempted to read every auto and farm electrics book with no improvement in the situation. They all seem to start with a chapter entitled "Theory of Electricity". After a few paragraphs I usually close the book and go back to banging out dents. A good friend and I were recently discussing our tractor electrical systems when he stated "I figure it all comes back to applying Ohms Law". At this point
