Powertech Genset Kubota Engine Oil Pressure Sending Unit Part Number?

[mbulriss]

Any one have a part number for a Powertech Genset Kubota Engine Oil Pressure
Sending Unit.

I am tired of talking to parts guys that need to know what year car it is for,
when I have the part in my hand, the engine number, etc.! What happened to NAPA
guys that knew how to look in the parts cross reference manual and match the
part?

Thanks,

Call your local Kubota Tractor Dealer and tell him it is V1902 or VB1902 engine.

Also, there is a Powertech Dealer in Houston and Dallas.

Ron,

The local Kubota tractor parts guy said "What's that?" when I walked in with it
in my hand and gave him the V1902-BG engine model code. He followed that with
"I've never seen one of those" when I told him what it was. The final was when
he asked if it was a tractor part and I told him it was on a Kubota diesel V1902
tractor engine on a genset and could he just cross reference it by engine code,
he said "I would have no way of finding that if it's not a tractor part. But
there's a Kubota industrial parts place in Houston you could call." I truly
thought about saying 'OK, I'll play this game - it's on a 1991 Kubota diesel
tractor with a V1902 engine', but I didn't know a tractor model code to make up
(which I just knew he was going to have to have to do a look up!), so I decided
it was just time to leave at that point. There was no intelligent life in that
universe.

I'm not going to worry about it since I do have oil pressure, since the shut off
sensor is not shutting it down, and the engine runs smooth as silk. It really
would be comforting however to have the dash gauge reflect the pressure. I have
built a "t" plumbing fitting with both the sending unit and a manual gauge on it
for when the tray is open. I am just going to put the defective sending unit
back on until I find the part number to hand feed to a "professional parts
specialist" somewhere.

You got a number on Powertech in Dallas?

Mike, don't feel bad. When I was in Livingston, Mt at the local parts place I blew it when I told the parts teenage it was on a bus. His reply was the same as yours. So I went to another place since I learned my lesson.

FWIW, I was trying to get some info on oil filters, etc... and emailed
Kubota Tractor... I was told "we can't support non-Tractor engines
you must contact the [generator] manufacturer." They went on to
explain that some components on engines that have been installed by
PowerTech (and other non-Kubota vendors) _may_ have non-standard parts
as far as Kubota is concerned.

them! LOL!!!!

Pete, I contacted Power Tech about three months ago on my generator problem and got told that since it was 14 years old, (Even though it had less than 700 hours on it..) that I needed to find someone to check it out. They didn't even want to talk to me or recommend what they thought the problem might be. Doesn't sound like good customer service does it?

There's a good place up here in Dallas known as Parker Power. They handle all kinds of generators for RV's and boats. They're in the northwest corner of town.
