I recently purchased this machine its always started first time, i tracked it up to the motocross track i am building used it for ten minutes it cut out and will not start, going to have a proper look at it today , i would suppose the lift pump should be the first place to look.

I'am not sure you didn't mention gas or diesel let us know more information then we'll have a better chance to answer your question's Larry
Its got the 3 cylinder perkins deisel in. I,ve been and had a look today iam pretty sure it was the fuel tank petcock turned off. the PO must have turned it off and i have been just draining the system dry every time i have run it. i have manually pumped the system through but unfortunately the battery was flat so i couldn,t attempt to start it.

Fuel starvation will do it everytime[lol] let us know is that's what the problem was Larry:thumbsup:
Recharged battery, bled the pump and ejectors, still wouldn,t start. Put some jump leads on to escavator for some extra turning power and it fired straight away and i,ve been working it all afternoon. Very hard work to drive though i feel like i,ve been in the ring with mike tyson. Like i daid the PO must of switched it off and forgot to turn it on.
