Wait a little bit and it will start right up again and run for a short time then run very slow then die out?
I'm thinking fuel flow blockage.
The fuel exit line is up high on my tank. Must be a tube that goes down to the bottom of tank and the fuel pump or injectors I guess must create suction to get fuel up to the engine?
I don't see a fuel filter and I don't have fuel pressure guage on the machine.
My plan is to disconnect the main fuel line at the fuel motor line (there is a hose clamp there) place a rag over the gas intake cap and blow compressed air into the tank and see if the fuel comes up and out of main tank line?
Any thoughts on that?
Also, if I pinch off the line to the injectors on the fuel line portion that goes to the engine before I disconnect the main line from tank will that be OK or will I have some sort of a priming issue with the Duetz?
