I need help to troubleshoot why a tractor will not start. I'm helping my neighbor with his Cub Cadet 7260 26 HP diesel. We just got done putting a new dual clutch in it and he is having trouble starting it. It cranks well and puts out a puff of smoke but will not start. He says there was somewhat of a problem of this nature even before we did the clutch work but it would start. Battery is good and the starter cranks it over like normal. So, where does a guy start looking with this kind of problem? What do we do first then second, etc., etc., to get started on this problem.
