Farm Pro 2420 will not start

One other thought is the fuel cut off lever. You said it ran when you parked it and not now. Make sure the fuel cut off is not stuck down at the pump.

Sounds like this is what happened to me. Again, most likely a injector pump oil issue.

I agree with Bob on this one. Change the injector pump oil. I do so every other oil change at 100 hrs. (Change my engine oil at 50 hrs.) I just use 15W40 but any oil will really work. Many use strait 30W and others use compressor oil.

The main thing you are doing is verifying that fuel is not diluting the oil.

Now for the starting issues I think now you may have run your pump with out oil. How much did you put in? Mine only takes 12 oz or so. Its a Jinma 284 so it may be a little different than yours. I have 2 10mm drain plugs, a mushroom type vent/fill, and a 10 mm site plug with a little drain on it. To change I just pull both drain plugs. To fill just pour in about 15 oz and let it find the proper level and drain into a catch pan. Like I said mine uses about 12 oz I would guess so I add 15 oz and let it sit overnight to find the proper level.

I would try to verify that the cut off rack inside the pump is not stuck due to lack of oil. I can not tell you how to do this but it can be done. This has happened before to others due to low pump oil. I am sure someone will chime in. Just be careful in there and remember if you remove the pump it must go back on the same way to keep it in time.

Here again is what I think happened. I am not sure if the pump can be salvaged or not. I can remember on guy doing this and he was able to unstick the pump someway or another and get it back to working.
