My 3010 is not flowing enough fuel to keep the filter bowl full, it's causing my tractor to lug under minimal loads and takes a while to recover(like when the filter needs changed)
Any body else have this problem?
I have'nt started on the obvious yet(clean tank and line to filter) just wanted to see if anyone else has had this prob and what was your fix.

I saw this on my neighbors Kubota L4610 after the fuel filter was changed. A bleed screw/valve that wasn't obvious hadn't been closed up after the filter change, causing the filter to fill with air and not allow fuel to flow while under load. Any work done to the tractor lately? Seems as though dirt in the tank would be obvious but maybe the system is sucking air somewhere.

Thanks for the reply man,
I will check into that on mine.
As far as work done to it, it's all been done by me and it's only needed servicing since the initial problems when I first bought it.
Me do'n all the servicing may be the problem! Lol!
