Hello to all 2320 owners,
I recently posted a call for help regarding a problem with fuel flow on my 2320. I ran out of fuel, and after refueling, the tractor would not run for more than a couple seconds, them die...Because the fuel flowing into the filter housing was not keeping up with the consumption rate. I thought I picked up some dirt or crud from the bottom of the tank which restricted fuel flow, so I drained the fuel, blew out all fuel lines, and replaced the filter and o-ring..All to no avail, as the issue did not go away. Here is the issue...The book says the system is self priming, but it is not! On the side of the transfer pump is a little lever, the priming lever. After running out of fuel, the fuel pump must be primed in order to draw fuel out of the tank, so all I did was depress the prime lever about 15 times, and bingo...Problem solved.

Thanks for all the feedback.....Dan
