All... today i was using my ford 535 backhoe and changed the oil when i was done. After that, i sprayed on some engine degreaser and washed it off. I started the tractor and it ran with a sort of "huffing" sound every now and then. It then dropped rpm's and shut off. I can't get it re-started. I sprayed starting fluid into the air cleaner tube and it runs only until the fluid is used up. What could be up??? I only use the tractor occasionally and one time before, i had to put an algae killer in the fuel tank. Or could i have gotten something wet? I can't see what i washed off would kill the motor. The strange sound coming from the engine i never heard before. It almost sounded like an engine miss, along with the huffing sound. Any ideas???
