I recently ran out of fuel on my L3250, any suggestions on restarting?

Refill and bleed the fuel line. There is probably a small nut on the top of the fuel filter housing. Loosen that, crank the engine a bit, re-tighten.

I believe this model fuel tank is above eng. Good time to replace fuel filter filling with fuel and making sure fuel is filling filter most of these will start after cranking they should self bleed be carefull not to over heat starter give it a time to cool off. might be a section in owners manual giving instruction on this.

After putting fuel in tank open bleeder on fuel filter housing,pump hand pump until air free fuel comes out,close bleeder and try to start engine. If no start then bleed at inj pump inlet line,if no start bleed at injectors.

Push in the fuel cutoff button, run the glow plugs normally and try just turning the key. Sometimes it will catch if the injector lines don't have too much air. Might catch on one or two cylinders and stumble/limp along as the rest go back into business. Congrats on having an L3250 - in many ways the perfect size tractor.
