    Fuel Starvation on L3130

    Replaced the lift pump this afternoon. Bled the whole system. Runs great now. Thanks everybody for the advice. Just one thing. The rear injector now has the tiniest leak at the connector. I would guess it's less than a drop and hour. Maybe even less than that. It's tight, no question about...

    Fuel Starvation on L3130

    Thanks, but I don't see a screen on the lift pump. I just hooked up a bottle of diesel straight to the injector pump. I loosened all three injector connections. Cranked the engine for at least 10s and re-did this about 5 times. No diesel at the injectors. I loosened one injector connection until...

    Do I need to bleed the 3 injectors?

    Fuel Starvation on L3130

    So if I make a reservoir with diesel in it. Connect it to the inlet of the injector pump and pressurize it to a few psi, I could run the tractor if the lift pump is the problem. And if this works I could get the tractor back to the house where it would be easier to work on?

    Fuel Starvation on L3130

    So it appears I'm getting 2 opinions that are similar with one possible exception. Since I have no fuel pressure gauge, and every place is closed for the holiday, can I tell if the lift pump is good or bad without the gauge? Or, what would the next step be since it's clear that the lines are...

    Fuel Starvation on L3130

    I just confirmed that fuel flows strong and clean from the tank to the inlet of the lift pump.

    Fuel Starvation on L3130

    Thank you. I replaced the fuel filter 2 months ago and everything looked clean. If my lift pump is putting out enough fuel, and even though I don't have a gauge and tee to check right now, I would think what I saw was at least 2-4 psig, which is a very small amount of pressure. So everything...

    Fuel Starvation on L3130

    I have a similar problem with my L3130. The difference is my lift pump kinda slops out fuel each revolution. It doesn't rise more than about 1/4" each revolution out of the outlet tube on the pump. The tractor won't run and the lines up to the pump are clear. Should the pump put out more fuel...
