Do you have a Kubota RTV 900 or RTV X900 that the engine dogs out and loses power when you accelerate going uphill? If so, this is an EASY fix adjustment to cure that! Join me as I walk you through exactly how we did it and just how EASY it is. The Kubota RTV 900 and RTV X900 is a great machine, but I suspect that due to very strict emission controls they went just a tad too light on the fuel supply to power this beast!

I just did this procedure on my neighbors 900 and it solved the dogging problem! It couldn’t climb a steep grade even in 2 and 4 wheel low. We just kept adjusting and driving to find the sweet spot. I was a little concerned that the locking nut could vibrate loose so I added a lock washer. The final test was to tow a 1000 lb Polaris Ranger with me in up a steep grade. Chugged right up in 2 wheel low and never slowed down and no smoking. Thanks again !

@kapperoutdoors 3 года назад

Good deal! But I really hate that Kubota has let this problem go on for soooo long! Many years of owners have had to deal with this! And I don't know the fallout by adding more fuel, but man, it really sucks when you hit the gas uphill and it just bogs down!! Best of luck man, thanks! !

@vanivanstien1234 3 года назад

1. Black smoke in a diesel is in burnt fuel 2. If you increase your rail flow you should consider removing your spark arrestor due to the excess unburnt fuel it will pig up in no time and you will loose the power gain you got 3. Try removing your stock air filter , increasing intake pipe size with a very unrestricted air filter . 4 . Get a more aerodynamic unrestricted exhaust headers you will find a huge increase in power . The trick to diesel isn’t more fuel unless you can give it more air in and more air out

@kapperoutdoors 3 года назад

Here's an idea, how about Kubota fix this issue from the start! I did look at the things you say, but did not want to rebuild the whole thing with expensive after market parts. For me it just was not worth it. I got rid of the thing.. Thanks.

@Crazypartyhouse 5 лет назад

The pedal on your RTV moves the Swash plate in your HST....it does not move the governor on your engine. Your engine regulates its RPM's based on where the swash plate is. If you read your operators manual it will tell you that if you lose power going up a hill you are to let the pedal out until you hear the engine downshift then hold the pedal at that spot and the machine will go up the hill with power. They were designed that way to save the HST from going out by getting too hot. Mashing the pedal does nothing but losing all the pressure out of your hydro therefore stopping the machine or really slowing it down depending on how steep the hill is. RTV's are compact tractors with a passenger seat and truck bed designed to move heavy loads around at tractor speeds. They are not belt driven machines designed to fly up and down hills.

@kapperoutdoors 5 лет назад

Yep, I am aware of that, but still don't like it! Man, when you mash on the pedal, HST, hydro or not, you should have plenty of power to boot! thanks.

@Crazypartyhouse 5 лет назад

Kapper Outdoors mashing the pedal on a HST transmission is like starting your 5 speed vehicle in 3rd gear. Yeah you can get to higher speed faster, but try it on a hill and you find out real quick it doesn’t work real well

@MrPicklePiece 4 года назад

HUNTING IN PA Question, I have a 2007 RTV 900. In medium speed gear should I be able to climb a somewhat steep hill if starting at the base of the hill? If I switch to low mine will climb easy, but medium sounds like what you mentioned as starting out in 3rd gear on a standard transmission.

@pls1911 2 месяца назад

Late to this video... I have 2 RTV 900s, each pushing 1000 hours... another item which can gradually rob power is the final spark arrester screen just inside the tail pipe. It gradually gets clogged and creates lots of back pressure, inhibiting engine breathing. Spark from diesel exhausts should not normally be an issue on these, and cleaning with carb cleaner or brake cleaner is a snap, so do what works for you. Now you have something else to check!

@louielopez1638 5 лет назад

@EverydayImTECHnIt 2 года назад

The overheating issue most likely is from your radiator fan not turning on not the belt driven fan but the radiator fan that is electric that is most likely your issue you can hardwire the fan to the ignition so it just comes on when you turn on the key

@kapperoutdoors Год назад

I believe that I tried to clean the spark arrestor but I think it was a sealed unit that I could not get access to clean it. Either way for me, I ended up trading in for a Polaris. Cheers!

@thewoodsfamilyhomestead8638 3 года назад

the thing you adjusted is the govner set screw. to increase the fuel flow on a kubota you remove shims from under the fuel pump. that will also change the timing. kubota pumps are fairly built the same for most all applications. i have the d1402 and a d902 kubota . they are really easy to work on.

love reading the comments. biggest problem is usually thinking these are run the same as their competitions machines and nothing could be more further from the truth. no one bothers reading the owners manual then cries that it dont work right.

@kapperoutdoors 2 года назад

Well having owned many different utv's I have to say that I do think that Kubota really could have fixed this issue. Regardless of what type of fuel driven machine it is, in general when you mash the gas pedal you want to go as fast as that machine is capable. But with the Kubota diesel you have to really feather the pedal and when you mash it, it bogs down. I know what you are saying on this, but still believe they could have done much better with it. Anyway I ended up getting rid of it, I just could not deal with that. Thanks

@CharlesLScofieldJr 5 лет назад

If it doesn't have a turbo do they make one for it? That would definitely add power to the engine. I know when I was in the Army the old M35 2 1/2 Ton trucks didn't have turbos, but the newer model M35A2's did, a lot more power and torque. Even the M52A2 5 Ton Tractors had a turbo. Of course, those trucks had multi-fuel engines and in addition to diesel, you could even run JP4/5 fuel in them you talk about power with that fuel. I ran my tractor from Ft. Stewart, GA back to Ft. Bragg, NC one time running JP4 jet fuel. It ran so clean that the inside of the stack was cocoa brown instead of the usual black soot inside. Got an extra whole three miles an hour out of it too. Not sure if JP4 would actually hurt a straight diesel or not.

@southbound141 5 лет назад

Thanks for the video, I was having the same problem but was a clogged fuel filter, did you notice anymore top end speed, 24 mph is all I can get out of mine, did the screw adjustment increase your top speed

@kapperoutdoors 5 лет назад

I haven't really noticed on the top speed but I need to do my service and fuel filter change to see how that goes.

@bobblack3870 2 года назад

In theory, it shouldn't change top speed, but it may get you to top speed faster. Speed is determined primarily by the engine RPMs. Diesels turn slower than gas. The gas version of this is called a Sidekick and because the gas engine can spin faster, it's top speed is around 40 instead of 24.

@MikeyDunn 5 лет назад

That's probably why it was doing so good on fuel!

You should of bought Polaris Ranger and you wouldn't have those kind of problems .. I've never had any problems with my Polaris ...lol

yes I agree Polaris is a great machine but I got a really good deal on this diesel Kubota with only 50 hours on it so that's why I jumped on it. But I'll tell you what there's a big power difference after just a little more fuel :-)

KAPPER TOO MUCH FUEL WILL WASH CYLINDER DOWN AND SCORE CYLINDER AND PISTON. LIL ADJUSTING LIKE YOU DID WILL NOT HURT.

yeah I would say for a gasoline engine might be a little more risks but for a diesel was just a little tweak this will be fine. You should have heard it go when I ran it without the air filter also. this just tells me the engine has tons of reserved power that they are forced to keep it down due to emissions. Thanks man
