Kubota is the better motor,Cat is just a perkins with yellow paint

 

My understanding is perkins is owned and produced by cat.

 

Like I said , a perkins painted yellow

 

Guess i don't know what you mean. Perkins are fine engines. Only negative about them is the price tag. But that's always been the case with anything cat.

 

I never said they were bad, I said Kubota was the better motor.

 

My mistake. It sounded like you were saying they were poor quality. Or rather that's how i read it.

Not that I'm saying kubota engines aren't good. That's what my bobcat has in it and its held up just fine over the years.

 

Before I pull the trigger on one of those I think I will see how Pete makes out after having his in service for a year. No tougher test out there!

 

Lmao I think I found the issue with my Honda. Well see this weekend. I think I'm just full of bad luck I keep my Honda in good shape but I think the vibrations isn't helping it lol

 

That's fine with me honestly. Thanks for the info

 

So i replaced the spark plug(It doesnt even have 60 hours on) It was in BAD Shape.. Maybe thats why it kept shutting down? We will see
