A co-worker has a Massey 1190 that's giving him fits....
It's an 1190 made by Iseki with an Isuzu 2.8 turbodiesel.
The problem he's having is that when it's under load for a short while it will start to loose power. If he lets it sit at idle a bit it will power right up again for a while and then repeat. Each time though it has less endurance before loosing power again.
I was thinking it may be a fuel issue? He changed the filters (both). I suggested he check the banjo bolts for mesh screen but we didn't get that far with it yet. I had a small feeling that's probably not going to offer much anyway....
It doesn't appear to be overheating, and I can't find any flaw with the motor. (Somewhere around 2800hrs).
Any thoughts? 25 years ago I had a Farmall SMD that did the exact same thing.....It turned out to be a bearing getting tight on the crank until one day it killed the engine by seizing completely. On this "Modern" Isuzu I absolutely cannot (or want) to see that being the case.
