ASV now uses a Deutz 3 cylinder instead of the Kubota 4 cylinder in the 65 hp size compact track loaders. How does the Deutz compare in terms of reliability, ease of repair and maintenance, longevity, and fuel usage? Thanks!
I think most of the older ones used Perkins diesels so there must have been a very brief time that the Kubota was used. Unlike Bobcat, ASV doesn't seem to have a website that details the historical changes through the years. Makes it hard to research used machines.

Deutz will be more expensive to repair i rekon, they may excellent engines, the 2 cylinder ones used to rattle around like crazy, but the 3 cylinder ones were a lot better.
Kubota, you have good after market parts availability.
