Hi
I have a 2202dt re manufactured with now 38 hours on the clock .
It was delivered to me from the dealer in i would say with hurried preparation. at approx 15 hours it seemed to loose power under load on a slight gradient.
I added injector clean and fuel conditioner and it seemed to improve . have used it today after 5 months lay up and on a slight gradient at 2000rpm after traveling about 10meter it will miss and loose power and revs drop to 1000 for a few seconds then it slowly climbs back up the rev range only to repeat the process. I am thinking fuel starvation but not sure where to start to look.
This is my first tractor and first diesel motor.

Hi Couta,
Sounds like a fuel problem to me to. I had the same problem in my Nissan Patrol a few years ago and it turned out to be a filter INSIDE the fuel tank that no-one new about.
I would remove the fuel filter and drain the tank. Refill the tank with fresh fuel and replace the filter. Bleed the system and see how that goes. The videos on this web site will show you how to do it all!
Good Luck.
