the fuel light had come on and been on for about 20 min according to my dad. He was trying to finish up a small lot without having to load up and get fuel and then come back. We got it loaded up today by using a gear oil bottle to gravity feed. it would run for a few min and then have to stop...

all lines are clear.

OK game plan for tomorrow is to gravity feed it and limp it onto the trailer and get it to either my house or dads house where we have all of the tools we need plus it isn't sitting in a parking lot for whoever to tow or rob parts from. We have been taking the battery out just to keep someone...

No sir, the line on the right side of the lift pump was dry as a bone. So dry that it looked like fuel has never run through it. I physically put my mouth on all of the fuel lines today and blew through them. We are stuck in the middle of a commercial parking lot so a compressor isn't handy.

I'm not sure of the workings of the lift pump but if it makes any difference the right side hose (with the half moon shape ) had no fuel residue in it. it was completely dry. I'm guessing it is for a vacuum ref. but I could for sure be wrong esp. on diesel!

I haven't noticed a click bu I am used to hearing the buzz of an electric fuel pump prime.

as I said in the previous post we just closed the line so nothing would get in during the night. I appreciate your explanations! we have blown through every rubber line and can't seem to get any fuel to the number 3 and 4 injector line. Is the fuel/lift pump like and old mechanical fuel pump...

The only lines that we didnt move air through were the little lines off of the top of the fuel filter...im guessing 1/8 lines?

Ok, today we went back and changed the fuel filter and got nothing. Then we started popping lines. All lines appear to be clear as air can pretty easily be moved through any line. I even blew from the filler neck through both tanks and made noise around the pump area. is there a fuel pump to...

Thank you sir. give me a gas burner and I'm fine but diesel is still fairly new to me. I've done compound turbos and programmer stacks on dads cummins but the fuel system is still stock...at least until I move him to twin cp3 pumps.

what is this hand pump you speak of? there is a knob at the top of the filter that spins to no end and has like a clicky sound/feel to it.

We didn't open the filter up. we pulled the water canister off and it had some water in it but it never did fill back up. Tomorrow we are going to change the fuel filter and check the fuel flow from the tank. We didn't have the tools today to do any work and i had to get home to catch my...

Hi everyone! My dad managed to run his tractor out of fuel again today. 2nd time in 6 months! I'm about ready to disown him. Anyway I bleed the lines last time per Vics video and perfect everything ran fine until today. Dad ran it out again and called me to bail him out. I go and get 5 gal of...
