hi to you all this is my first post on the site i recently had a kubota k008 micro digger brought over to France where we live where all was well until i but fresh fuel in as it was very low then had great problems restarting it after new filters fuel air in the meantime after checking it over i managed to depress the auxiliary pedal and thought it didn't look like it had been used for some time the machine has quick connectors on the main boom again couldn't get them to move now i notice the engine gets hot quick and so does the hydraulic pump and at last attempt the motor overheated into the header tank i have now changed the thermostat and water pump as i found a lot of play in the shaft restarted and still seems to get to hot for my liking as another test i have had a hydraulic hose made to link the auxiliary connectors on the boom and found the pipe and fittings get very hot i am at a bit of a loss now as to what to do next is it possible i have jammed something in depressing the auxiliary pedal if there is some advice as to what to try i would be very grateful
