hi all.
not sure the year we can't find the manual, might be on id tag somewhere. anyhow the tractor started skipping or starving for fuel when it got warm. it has new air filter, fuel filter and o ring, fuel has been drained and replaced, with some 911 added, oil checked for moisture "anti-freeze", radiator checked for oil or bubbles, checked return lines for ubstruction. I tried some other things also with no luck. it has gotten worse over time now in 20f weather it will run for about 10 min till it gets up to operating temp and then starts to act like its starving for fuel and then slowly dies. I'm not real familiar with diesel engines. I figured I would throw to post up as food for thought while I put new fuel and return lines in and maybe throw some good injector cleaner in. so it doesn't seem like a warped head or injector pump problem, if the gears were stripped on the injection pump it seems like it should do it all the time and not start, unless the fuel gravity feeded into the lines, but if that were the case I don't think it would run that long. i'm not sure if bad injectors can act up as they get warm, but that is all I can come up with. i'm banging my head against the wall on this one. thank you in advance for your time and patience any help will be greatly appreciated.
thanks
