Kubota KL38 Coolant and Engine Notes

Coolant capacity note The headline cooling-system number for the Kubota KL38 is 2.17 gal (8.2 L). Buy enough coolant before opening the drain plug
Radiator capacity note Radiator capacity is listed as 2.17 gal (8.2 L). The full cooling system can be higher because coolant also sits in the engine and hoses
Coolant type note Use the right coolant formula for the Kubota KL38: ethylene glycol-based coolant and Kubota Genuine Coolant. Cheap wrong coolant is not a smart saving if it causes corrosion or deposits
Antifreeze mix note The 50/50 coolant and water mix mix gives the Kubota KL38 coolant system a sensible balance of freeze protection, boil protection and corrosion protection
Engine context note The Kubota KL38 engine data captured here is displacement 2.2 L (134.3 cu in). Bigger engines usually need more coolant and more careful refill bleeding
Refill note Coolant changes are simple but easy to do sloppily. On the Kubota KL38, plan around 2.17 gal (8.2 L) and confirm the final level after air works out of the system
