MF 275 Diesel - Stalled and won\'t start. Help!
I was just finishing up splitting wood when I noticed the rpms on the tractor engine fluctuate as if it was running out of fuel. It would run faster, then slower, then faster; finally it died and I was unable to start it. The fuel gauge read 1/2 full and I peeked into the tank and verified it wasn't empty. Also checked the fuel filter - the reservoir was full & there was no crud. I've been running her on heating oil as per recommendation of the dealer. Does this sound like a dead fuel injection pump?
