My L5030 will crank, occasionally start and quit, but won't run. Replaced seat switch, attempted to bleed fuel lines, but does not seem to be getting fuel to injectors. Research has me looking at the OPC timer switch, but I'm not sure of location of switch on tractor. Any thoughts would be appreciated.

Algae and/or bacteria growing in the fuel lines and tank and then clogging the fuel filter? If filter looks slimy, buy some biocide and treat fuel and change filter a couple of times to get rid of it.

Sent you a link to the download of the WSM for your tractor.
That should help you get into it a little more, and check the OPC and the fuel solenoid. ;)
