I have a Kioti 45hp and live in Maine.
Use off road dye diesel.
Tractor has 1400 hours.
Change oil every 100 hours.
Fuel filter changed at 1100 hours.
Temp is 0 at night and maybe 20 during the day.
Engine will start if I start it once a day but if left to sit a week or two it is like having no fuel. I will use a small torpedo heater to warm up the motor and it will start. When I am plowing and running about 1800 to 2000 RPMs and then let up on the pedel the tractor will die. It starts right back up but sometimes has no response to the throttle and I turn the key off and on quickly and runs normal. On a few occasions the engine will just rev up and I can turn the key off but will not shut of motor. I have to brake and use high gear to stall the engine. I can restart the motor and it will run fine again. I figure its a fuel problem, but with the revving of the motor with key off has me stumpped.
