Oil & Fuel Kubota B6000 Fuel Problem

[EaTmYtAiLpIpEs]

My kubota b6000 seemed to gel up last saturday. It ran for about 2 minutes then it shut right off. I put it in a warm garage overnight and tried to start it. Nothing just turned over. So I pulled the fuel filter off to see if it was plugged. It isnt. So I bled the system. Nothing. I can force fuel up into the injector pump with an air compressor and air nozel. And it will start right up. If anyone has any ideas. it is a 2 cyl diesel. If anyone knows where I can buy an injector pump rebuild kit or you know someone that has an injector pump they want to sell resonably priced.

If you can force fuel to the injector pump and it runs...sounds like either the electric fuel pump (or fuse), or one or both fuel filters. The cartridge filter is between the fuel and injector pumps, and the replaceable element filter is between the tank and fuel pump. Another possibility is a cracked or loose fuel line on the suction side of the fuel pump.
