I've got a 9 year old 3300SU with about 300 hours on it. Driving it last weekend and it sputtered and died on me. Coincidentally, my battery was the original and also dead, so I replaced that as well as the disgusting fuel filter.
Now it has a nice charge and plenty of starting power, but still won't turn over. Well, it will turn over after 5-6 tries and then runs about 10-15 seconds and dies again.
I did notice that once it starts, the glass bowl where the fuel filter is drains right out when the tractor dies. Takes quite a while to re-fill.
So what, if anything, is between the fuel tank and this filter? The old filter was pretty gummed up so I'm thinking that line may also be gummed up.
Or is there a pump that isn't working?
