Last week I was plowing the garden and had the BX2200 at a decent lean with 2 of the tires in a furrow. The engine started to lose some power and sputtered a little so I thought I was running out of fuel. I idled it down and turned it off quickly and refilled the tank.
It runs fine for a while and then intermittently looses power and then comes back again. Maybe drops a few hundred RPM's. No smoke at all from exhaust, cracked the lines at the injectors at idle and all stumbled the engine equally, filters are 10 hours new and look clean. Haven't drained any fuel yet to check for water but was wondering if these symptoms sound like water in the fuel. I work with a lot of diesels and all of them have a water separator and I don't ever remember an diesel running like this due to water. Always see either blue or black smoke or the exhaust just smells different. Kinda like an engine that's burning antifreeze.
