Your video is helpful, but the book for this engine says the #1 cylinder is the front and #2 cylinder is the rear. Your video is opposite of the manual. The engine is the same Kaf620. Any additional info would be helpful.
Did anyone else feel that they are adjusting the rear valves while on #1? I found other info that indicates #1 is the front head, and this is what I observed when doing it myself.
THANKS TO ALL REPLIES:Today adjusted my mule 3010 which is a 4x4,valve lash and yes your right back cylinder is #2 plus you can’t take the -flywheel cover off the rear driveshaft is in the way even if you remove center u joint strap it still doesn’t give you the enough clearance to remove cover. My last resort was to use a pry bar to bend the plastic on the flywheel cover back after removing the hardware holding it on to find the #1 number and #2numbers then I used a whiteout marker to mark the locations and for reassurance I took a 10”long dowel rod, a screw driver will work as well, stuck it in the spark plug hole and turned the flywheel and watched the rod raise up and stop it as it began to drop back down (TDC) checked my marks and it all lined up for each cylinder after adjustments the mule idles perfectly.THIS VIDEO IS WRONG ,but it created all of you who left replies thanks to all!
I have a 3010 its running on 1 cylinder(front) but the rear cylinder has good spark, seems like no fue going to it, I cleaned the carb, same results. Compression is 75-90 in both cylinders, plz help..thx
great video this and the carb rebuilt, would like to see a video on setting the idle on this 3000 mule and I am having an issue with the gear shifter popping out of Hi and Lo if there is a simple adj. love to see a video. Thanks ED
Great Video - Thanks. On my 2002 Kawasaki Mule 3010 I am un able to get the flywheel cover off as the propshaft is in the way and there isn't enough clearance to get the cover out once it's unbolted. Any suggestions?
I have the same one. Remove the 2 bolts that hold the carrier bearing for the small driveshaft that goes to the front. They are on a crossmember. The driveshaft will now move enough to get the cover off. If it comes out of shaft no big deal.
Pretty good video, however you adjusted the # 2 valves while on the # 1 crank mark. You mentioned "top dead center" but the # 2 cylinder is NOT on TDC when the #1 mark is line up on the crank case. Otherwise a well done video partner!
Can you do more mule 3000 videos, such as electrical troubleshooting?

very good video

the books says front is #1 and rear is #2
He need to update this video. The back is #2
I'm glad I'm not the only one who noticed this!

This video was a great help
I have a 3000 mule. The spark plugs are very wet. I already checked the carburetor. It's fine, but the same problem continues.

I have a 2005 mule 3010 and have the same problem. Would like to know also.
I have the same one. Remove the 2 bolts that hold the carrier bearing for the small driveshaft that goes to the front. They are on a crossmember. The driveshaft will now move enough to get the cover off. If it comes out of shaft no big deal.
I was able to pull the plastic back far enough to see the marks, used a pry bar to turn flywheel
I have a 1995 mule try to start it I popped and smoke came out of motor where the flywheel is
Why am I not seeing the rear drive shaft, it has to be removed
Exactly I'm standing here thinkin how the hell did they pull that right off
@@lukeparmentier7815 3000 is two drive the 3010 is 4 wheel drive
Anyone found out how yet?

How long does the parts take to get in? I ordered some last Monday and there still not here..
Depends on if they are in stock or not. Also, depends on your location.
How do you take off the timing cover it it’s a 3010 (4wheel drive) the rear drive shaft is in the way of the cover
Where's your drive shaft ???
