[QUOTE="DiamondSCattleCo, post: 328763, member: 2862"] Cowpoke, I don't know much about the Kabota tractors so can you tell me what kind of injector pump is on it? If its mechanical, then there will be a way to boost fuel. Bear in mind that if its a rotary pump, you won't want to boost fuel much, if at all. Mechanical rotaries are notorious for shortened life span, unless the rotary pump is detuned for the tractor's horsepower. As an aside, adding air or changing the exhaust does virtually nothing to increase power on a diesel, unless either the air or exhaust is restrictive and not allowing the cylinders to vacate the exhaust or allowing enough air to burn the existing fuel charge. I have yet to run into a tractor that had either condition. [/QUOTE]
