71 4000 3 cyl diesel
I quote Soxbill---"If you have a defective injector pump that is on the verge of dying, a can of bg will clean it up and let it die faster."
I put in a can of BG 244 about 2 or 3 weeks ago in a perfectly fine running tractor(except for an occasional shot of ether). About the length of time I figure it would have taken for the BG 244 to hit the engine the tractor quit and wouldn't start even though I was getting fuel to the injectors, I bled everywhere and changed the fuel filter as I saw crud and water in the containers i got the bleed from. Got it started and ran it for a couple of hours and decided I needed a new batt cable, so about 2 weeks ago in the process of replacing it I busted the solenoid cap by over tightening. So the tractor has been sitting uncranked for about 2 weeks with BG 244 still in the fuel, new solenoid finally came and I installed it today and now I am I can't get fuel to the injectors. Bled, drained, etc everything and still no fuel when I crack the injectors.
??First thing tomorrow I am going to have some one come by and try to drag it to start it.????
If that doesn't work I will Drain tank and all lines as best I can and replace with new non BG fuel.???
P.S. Fuel cutoff is definitely pushed in and on and connected, throttle is connected and working.
If that doesn't work I'm gonna have to be calling my lawyer on y'all again.
:wink: :wink:
Thanks
