B2710 running rough

[nykyfyr]

I don't know if it's just me or what but my B2710 feels like it's running a little rough lately. Feels like the whole tractor has a low level vibration thoughout, almost makes it uncomfortable. Anyone have any ideas as to what the cause might be?

Thanks

Put your 3ph lever in the down position, does it smooth out?

It's down (has to be with my BH). I cleaned the filter today and it didn't really make a big difference. I'm thinking that maybe it's the quality of the diesel I've been using (if it makes a difference)

Thanks

Not sure which filter your cleaned, but I was amazed at how bad my B2910 started to run when it had 390 hours on it, and was due to have the fuel filter changed at 400 hours....

Lack of power, and occasional unloaded rpm variation of +/- 500 RPM...

If you take the fuel filter off, try to blow through it. It should pass air easily. If it doesn't, put a new one on. If you don't want diesel fuel on your lips, put a new fuel filter on. I could not believe how much difference changing my fuel filter made...
