Evening all
I'm trying to get hold of a kubota 2 cylinder engine if anyone knows where I might get one. I've tried a couple of breakers on line but had no luck. I've had a quote of £1500 for a new one but that's out of the question.
Any help greatly appreciated.

.... And when I looked at that one there were a few more in the view pane below it. Like hens teeth? |

Thankfully many of those hateful little things are being broken up, a boat is a much better home for that engine - rather a boat chugging away serenely than one of those things blocking an A road at <40 mph! |

I bought two Z482 units a few years go intending to make a 12v generator. Both on eBay for about £200 each. One from a road sweeper and one from a reefer unit (chiller truck).
I sold them on eBay when I located a HFL DC traveller 12v generator anyway.
I found them with "Kubota engine" searches.
They both had different sumps - worth measuring up as one of them (road sweeper) had a very deep oil pan.

I have actually seen that one but it's a long way from me if it isn't right. I have emailed the guy but not had a reply yet. There were a couple of others but one was off a road sweeper and had hydraulics fitted or something. Anyway it wasn't right. The other one that was on again I had no reply to a question and then it was taken down. But I'll keep looking. |
