Does anyone have a source for replacement teeth for a T78 Bucket for my Deere 325 other than the dealer?

Thanks for the heads-up on the separator. I have had it about 2 months now and have put about 100 hrs on it with no troubles so far.

Thanks, I am the proud owner of a new-to-me Deere 325. I got it with a 78 inch tooth bucket, forks, and maintenance records for $11,000. I need new tires right away. It doesnt have any options, but I hope/think i got a decent deal.

I have had a Bobcat 751 for a few years and now need a larger machine. I have found a 2005 Deere 325 with about 1700 hours on it. Are there any particular things I should check out before committing to this machine? I just dont have any experience with the JD's.

Tazza, how is that 751 rebuild coming along? 751-C series like mine had Peugeot engines, later series D or E of the 751 did have Kubota engines. If it is a shiny aluminum block engine, it is the Peugeot, if it has a blue or other color engine it is probably the Kubota. It is impreative to find...

Are you using the same auger drive head on all the machines for comparisons sake? there is a lot of difference in the RPM vs Torque among the drive head models.

Thanks, I just ordered one instead of runnig all over town.

Thanks, I picked up three gallons this morning at the dealer. It has gone up to $16.00 per gallon. I am trying to locate a PG antifreeze tester. The guys at the autoparts stores look at me like I am crazy for asking.

I am gettting ready to do fall maintenance on my 751. I can't find any where in the manual stating how many hours you should change the coolant. Any ideas?

What engine does that one have? Do you think it was fuel related or poor workmanship?

WOW you are vested in that one! Keep us up to date.

I bought a set of them last year to run on my 751 to clean out a pond. They worked great, but I only put about 25 hours on them and set them aside.

Could you fuel pump timing be off? I am not famaliar with Yanmar, but most diesels I know of don't like to start with a pump slightly out of time.

I will try my best to weld a strap up the back of the mounting plate toward the cylinder before I use it.

Thank you all very much. This is great information on a question I was hesitant to ask.
