Water Pump - recirculating

[patrice]

Hi All,

I got a problem this w-e with the Antifreeze recirculating pump.
For whatever reason, it look like the shaft got bent, I took it off, and the impeller run offset and rub on one side of the casing.

I did some surfing on the C34 site, which is always a gold mine of infos.
My engine is the M25XP.
That would be engine block type D-950.
Found a pump no from the Kubota catalogue 15531-7303-0.

Now, did anyone ever had similar issue ?
Where did you ordered the pump ?  If could be on the east coast side, would be nice.

As always, thanks for sharing.

Tractor Smart in Pa. has always been a good source of parts for my 25XP. Not a hard job. I think the pump was less than $100 a couple of years ago

HI,

As usual, thanks all for the tips.
Found one at a Kubota dealer not far from here.
Bit more expensive, but no shipping fee.  So end up pretty close $$.

Bob, lucky you if you did not had shipping fee.  It state $25.oo shipping fee on the ebay page just found from your reference ???

[Bobg]

Yes they did raise the price to $59.85, but the shipping is still free (just looked) takes a few days to get here, but it is the real deal, just installed mine.  I just googled Kubota D950 water pump, clicked on the ebay one listed.

Pat : When I installed a new circulating pump on my M25XP I used some #2 Permitex (non hardening)  on both surfaces beside a new gasket.

Make sure that both surfaces are clean clean with none of the old gasket remaining.

You'll "burp" your cooling system (as a just in case) before starting the engine. Just might save you some grief!!  Good luck, not a difficult task.  Tighten the bolts "X" wise to the correct torque.

A few thoughts

[Ron Hill]

Guys : The reason that I mention torque, is because my memory tells me that the steel bolts that hold the circulating pump in place go into the aluminum accessory front of the engine.

SO, Tighten gently!!

Jerry:

Do you have the M35A(C)?  If so, do you happen to recall the part number for the pump?

I see lots of cross references to Kubota parts but not what Kubota model maps to the M35A... anyone know?

I'd rather take a part down to the boat with me and save a trip to go down, take it off, and order the part.

I posted the Kb sister engine parts manuals on the TechWiki, under the MANUALS topic. If you check the Wb part number for the m35a, I'd be very surprised if it was different than the pump for the M25/xp/xpa, so the same Kb p/n would fit either.

There's some good stuff there to be sure, but I must be going blind... all I see is Kubota block 850 and 950 stuff.  I'm pretty sure that the M35A is a V-1200 block but when I chased that down further to water pump p/n, I got conficting info.  I guess this will be a two (at least) trip repair and I'll have to pull it out before I order.

I checked and Wb does show the m25/xp/xpa to have a different water pump p/n than for the m36/a.  Here's the v1200 page (that block was used on the B9200 tractor, among others.)

I'll try to upload the complete Kb engine parts manual as I have time.
