Hello guys, I have a 17 L6060 hst with a cab, it has 350 hours on it. At random times, I will be running the tractor and all the sudden the engine will begin to surge and clatter, the rpm will drop to almost dead, sit for a minute then come back to where I have it set, sometimes it will just die suddenly, usually it will crank rite back up, sometimes it refuses to crank and I have to pull the fuel line off behind the fuel pump and blow through the separator back into the tank, usually it cranks immediately and will run for random times, sometimes 5-10 minutes or until I’m finished with the project I’m doing. I have pulled the crossover hose under the tractor off and dumped both tanks of fuel into a tank flushing both tanks, got lots of trash and debris out, thought my problem was definitely solved then it began to do it again, so this time I bypassed the fuel water separator thinking. It had an obstruction it it somewhere, still does it, I have noticed that when it dies, I can pull the line off the fuel lift pump on the front side and fuel just bubbles out of the line and strong in my opinion, but it still stumps me as to why it only runs after blowing back behind the pump into the tank, please help, it’s just about drive me crazy, I’ve took it to the dealer, they kept it a week or 2, told me it was ready, I went and got it, ran good, then after a while, here it goes again, the picture I’m posting is what I got out of the tank after the dealer said they cleaned the tanks. Thank You
