NEW KUBOTA GASOLINE, LPG AND NATURAL GAS ENGINES
Kubota has announced the highly anticipated release of its WG1605, WG2503 and WG3800 family of spark ignited engines to the oil and gas industry. This versatile and powerful family of Kubota natural gas engines share many of the same components found in their venerable, heavy-duty diesel counterparts and are now approved and warranted for wellhead gas operations, such as pump jacks, compressors, and vapor recovery units. Known for their extreme durability, the new line was designed to endure harsh environments found in oil and gas fields. Compared to today's common automotive-based designs, the Kubota engines will provide a much longer life cycle and offer many other benefits and program features for customers searching for a reliable solution in the improving oil & gas market. Some of these features include:
- Dual Fuel Capability: Runs on natural gas or propane as fuel source

- Premium engine valves with robust cast iron cylinder head
- Engine block and components based on diesel model counterpart and footprint
- State-of-the-art ignition systems
- State-of-the-art fuel systems with water-resistant electrical connectors
