For a while I've had an intermittent problem with my tractor not starting. It's happening more frequently now.
Most of the time it will start right up, other times it will crank over fine, but act like the fuel shut off solenoid is deactivated.
When it won't start, I've checked and found power at the injector pump.
Sometimes it takes several tries before it will start. When it does start, it starts instantly, no sputtering, perfectly normal. Once running power is normal and it will run until shut off.
Hot or cold makes no difference. Thoughts?:confused3:

Thanks, Bill

I think I discovered the problem. Power at the injector pump was intermittent. Evidently every time I tested it it showed hot, then shut off when I went to start it.
I swapped the start relay with the left turn relay and that seems to have solved it.
