Won’t start

[Ryder65]

I have an M6800. It has three lights in the dash panel. Fuel, a middle one, and the PTO. The middle light is staying on and the tractor won’t stay running. Any thoughts?

Your title says it won't start. Your post says it won't stay running. Which is it?

Middle lamp is Oil Pressure.
Yep doesn't run very well without oil pressure.

It could just be a faulty oil pressure switch.
could be this one

Sorry. It starts for 3-5 seconds.

I'm pretty sure the oil pressure lamp is just a product of it not running long enough.
The sender has no ability to shut the engine down.

Sounds like you have a fuel solenoid issue.

In the past it the OPL shuts off with I. That 3-5 seconds. The switch is t that costly so figure I’ll start there. Thanks for your help.
