What is a good starting fluid for a diesel tractor?
Thanks for the reply. My kioti CK 25 HST wouldn’t start this today so I gave it a small shot of starting fluid from TSC it stated on the can ok for Diesel although I know better, once it started like normal fast it ran for about an hour while I hooked up bush hog, turned it off and tried to restart and nothing.
I’m thinking fuel pump, any thoughts?
Start with the simpler things first. If it's turning over, confirm fuel flow by removing fuel line from the tank out (one at a time).
Replace the fuel filters if they are even remotely due, confirm that the electric lift pump (if equipped) is working. After that, the fuel shut off solenoid is a frequent culprit
