Had an injector stick open today with 15hrs on the meter. Sounded like a rod knocking. Added some injector cleaner and ran it about 10 minutes and the injector freed up and it quietened down. Scared me for a lil bit.

Two things, first are you buying your fuel from a dealer who has a large turn over of fuel. Second are you adding any diesel fuel additives like Power Service Products product " Diesel Fuel Supplement+Cetane Boost" which I add to ever tank.

Only had 2 tanks of fuel in it so far, and yeah it comes from a local truck stop that is very high volume. I hadn't been adding anything to it but since the bottle I bought treats 125 gallons I got plenty left for most of the summer. :laughing::laughing: Still love the little Mahindra. A stuck injector is no big deal, I work for an ambulance service and last week they replaced all 8 injectors in my rig and when they started it 2 stuck open within the first 30 minutes. Hey, if anything does go bad I got 59 months left on the warranty....

Well I've got just over three year on my tractor and only called my dealer to get some free paint otherwise never need to use my warranty for anything so that may tell you how good they are...enjoy

O I aint given up on the little Mahindra. As a matter of fact went out today and knocked over half a dozen 9 inch trees. Put the bucket about 5ft high and locked her in 4wd and pushed them right over. I love this little tractor and it surprises me more every time I use it.
