Hey,I recently purchased a 1988 jcb 1400b backhoe.I can operate machine about 2 to 3 hours and it will come to a slow idle then engine will shut off.I have changed all the filters including fuel and installed a manual temp. gauge.I thought overheating might be problem.Temp. max.only about 180.Could it be an electrical issue?
 
Is the fuel tank vent plugged? Loosen fuel cap and try it again. Yes I have had it happen on a diesel even with a lift pump.
 
Perkins 4.236,there is a washable gauze in the feed pump,undo the screw in the center of the dome and remove the gauze,clean it and the body of the pump and see how you fare.
