Hi
I'm new to this forum and I am having issues with my L4400. Recently I had just toped up the fuel in it, I only use a certain diesel vendor because I have had issues with other places. I am York raking my field due to a flood and ground height irregularities that happened when it bogs out and dies. It restarts briefly and dies. I limp it back to the garage and change out the fuel filter which seems fine but change anyway. Bleed system and still won't run longer than a few seconds. I go into the house and come back in the am and it starts right up and runs perfectly for about 10 minutes, bogs down and dies. I talked to my friend at the dealership after completing all the preliminary checks for being air bound, all good. I repeat starting and get starts and dies. I replace the fuel pump, clean all fuel lines looking for Alge build up, none, bleed system, starts and runs perfect for bout 10 minutes and dies. UGH! My thoughts are maybe something in fuel tank that moves around and clogs output port then after sitting floats away? I am hoping it is not an injector pump. I have not pulled the tank yet and hope not to, but
Any thoughts?
Thanks, and Happy 4th O July
