Question for you about the other ponds on the property, where do they drain off at? Where’s the overflow? Is there any? Maybe you could cause them to overflow towards that pond?

I own Stihls and Echos, for the size you are looking for I would suggest an Echo 501p. Yes its a pro saw but light in weight with tons of power.

I have not yet, so much to get done around here, hoping this week!

I can get it to siphon just fine. I just can’t get all the stuff out of the bottom once there’s no more fluid obviously the siphon quits.

Yeah, that just might work!

Yeah, that was exactly my fear with this!

There in lies my problem,the hose downstream of the tank has filter in the tank. It’s clogging up with stuff which is giving me a hard time.

So I have some stuff in my fuel ( Kubota L3540) , I tried to siphon it out to no avail and I really dont want to pull the tank so I was wondering of I could vacuum it out with my shop vac??? What do you think?

Great idea!! I was dreading removing the fuel tank to clean it out, this just might do the trick! Thanks I will try this!

Thanks for the help guys, So here is exactly what has happened this time around. Been using the tractor and it was working fine. But the other day I noticed a large O-ring on the ground and immediately thought the filter cup, I had been working on it in this place a few weeks ago and apparently...

Just had the cap off to add fuel, and it was running fine till I bled the fuel system, so I'm thinking that is not the problem.

Kubota 3540 diesel.. Ok, my manual sats when I need to bleed the fuel system, I need to open the breather valve on the fuel pump, start the tractor and let it run about 30 seconds then shut the air release valve. So I do exactly that and it will run for about 30 seconds or so and then die, and I...

Yes the fuel filter bowl on my tractor is clear.

Interesting, I blew out the feed line but never thought about the return line, I will track it down and give that a try, thanks. If that doesn't work I guess I'll pull the tank if I can figure it out. I have the WSM and nowhere can I find any reference to the fuel tank!!

Ok, kind of an update on this. Now about 4 months later I'm having the same problems again, so I re-did the same thing. Checked the fuel filter, it was new in May and looks great so I rinsed it, blew it out and reinstalled it. Drained the tank by removing the line from the tank to the filter, it...
