    BX2380 engine / fuel issue?

    I've swapped both filters and have installed them same direction as the previous ones. Dealer called me tonight and is sending a tech tomorrow. But I appreciate any other suggestions and will keep you posted.

    BX2380 engine / fuel issue?

    So I got it started, it even smoothed out a little bit about 5 minutes into letting the engine run. When it sounded close to normal, I tried to throttle up a little, but no change at all. I could see the throttle lever engaging, but no change to the RPM. At nearly 10 minutes on my timer, I tried...

    BX2380 engine / fuel issue?

    How long am I letting it run with the injector nuts loosened? Seconds. How long am I letting it run after retightening, or after bleeding the air after changing the filter? 2-3 minutes was the longest, but it's running so hard I hesitate to let it run longer.

    BX2380 engine / fuel issue?

    So I tried what was suggested. The nuts loosened pretty easily, and fuel definitely sprayed from them when I started the engine. I retightened them and started, but same thing: starts only after 2-3 tries, runs very rough and shaky, and will not go above 1000rpm. Lots of white smoke from the...

    BX2380 engine / fuel issue?

    Okay. Called dealer today, but they can't help me until next week. So I'm trying your suggestion. Wrench on the lower part/injector, 17mm on the top nut, but it doesnt seem to budge. As someone not mechanically inclined but with lots of time and eager to learn, do I just need to apply more...

    BX2380 engine / fuel issue?

    Did that in addition to turning the key. When I open that bleed valve by the injectors fuel definitely sprays out and will flow with no air if I remove it all the way.

    BX2380 engine / fuel issue?

    They seemed to be one solid unit when I installed them. Are you saying they come apart and that I should check the inside assembly? Or do you mean to make sure I have it installed properly in the fuel line? I installed it the same way the old one was aligned as well as the diagrams and videos.

    BX2380 engine / fuel issue?

    Thank you. I should clarify I meant my clamp tools used when swapping filters, not the hose clamps on the lines. And I definitely followed the procedure to bleed the air by turning the battery on for 30 seconds or longer. I appreciate these suggestions though!

    BX2380 engine / fuel issue?

    Hello tractor folks, New owner of BX2380 here. Just completed the 50 hour maintenance schedule changing the fuel filters, oil, oil filter, and hydraulic filter. Went to start the tractor and feels like it's starved for fuel--chugging, shaking, and it will start but not run over 1000rpm. Fuel...
