I want to try and see if the rack ??/ plunger ? that controls the fuel flow is actually moving .
I had an earlier post about shutting the tractor down to re-fuel it , and not being able to get it started again
I did not run it out of fuel , just wanted to add a couple gallons before starting another job with it .
Tried several things to get it started again , including bleeding all the lines (several times) .
I don't seem to be getting any fuel to the injectors .
Looking in the tech manual to see if there was something that could have come loose in the linkage that contols the injection pump , shut off ???
I took off the inspection plate on the side of the engine , to see what linkages , springs , etc , move, when operating the throttle from shut off to full throttle.
There doesn't seem to be any movement on the rack(or rod) on the pump that takes it from full throttle to the shut down position ....
Thought i might be able to see if anything was stuck or broken when i shut it down to refuel it .
I can't think of any other reason that it wouldn't start back up , just kind of feels like it might be stuck in the shut off position .
I might be , (and probably am) way off base with this idea , but thought i would try and take a look , if it isn't to complicated.
thanks for the replies.
