Tractor just quit, and now won\'t start

I have a YM3010D and it was running fine and then just died like it ran out of fuel, but there was plenty of fuel. Now it won't start back up. It cranks and bangs a few times like it's about to start, and then just dies. I checked the fuel lines at the injectors and seems to be getting fuel.

Any ideas? My service manual is packed because we're moving and I can't think why it won't run.

Thanks, Tim

I would start by checking the sediment bowl for water, then bleed the fuel line sequentially at the bleed screws. You could have gotten a bad batch of fuel or someway gotten air into the lines. If it was running poorly before it quit, you could suspect air filter or muffler.

Thanks for the info. I got it working again. I just didn't bleed the air properly.
