I was brush hogging today and I stopped forward motion then shifted into reverse and the engine started knocking and lost power. This was followed by heavy exhaust smoke. It was almost dark, so headlight diagnosis of smoke color was a little trying. It looked blackish-greyish-whitish.
My father suggested draning the fuel filter and the sump on the tank. He thinks it is water in fuel. It has rained for weeks and is humid (100% RH). When I started it back up it was idling then would start knocking and smoking then clear out for a moment and start smoking and knocking again. It is kinda intermittent.
This is a D-188 on a Farmall 504.
Thank you,
