My John Deere F1145 is giving me a fit right now. It has a 3 cylinder Yanmar diesel engine and wasnt giving me any problems until i decided to change the fuel filter. The problem is i changed the fuel filter and bled fuel system according to the manual and it started right up. After driving for a short time it died. I opened the hood and found the filter housing was almost empty. I filled it back up and re-bled everything and it will run fine until i try moving the machine. Once it starts moving it is like the fuel is dumped quickly from the filter housing and the engine dies from fuel starvation. It is like something is dumping the fuel out because it just empties out very quickly. I changed the fuel pump to filter hose this morning but it is still dumping the fuel back into the tank. Can anybody help. Thanks Jeff.
