kubota b3030
I was driving back up my driveway from spreading some gravel when my Kubota B3030 just stopped running. I checked and replaced the fuel filter, no water in the filter bowl, the glow plug light comes on, and the engine turns over okay but it just won't fire up. Where do I look next?

Welcome. Where are you? Cold? Does the fuel POUR into the filter bowl (with it removed), or just dribble? If not flowing good, blow air back up to the tank (take the cap off first). You may have algea/gunk/ice up there.

That’s a good one. All the safety things appear to be working because it turns over. Full of fuel? Getting air? Is the electric shut off working. Fuel to injectors? That’s some things to check

Thanks for the response. I'm in Virginia, temps were in the 50F range. Fuel flows freely into the bowl.

Thanks for the response. I did also check the air filter and the front grill screen to make sure they weren't clogged.

I would be checking the fuel shut off solenoid that mike1955 mentioned. First check the fuses, then the solenoid operation.
