1st, thanks for all the recent info...sorry for so many questions. Got back to my Power Major today. I found my "excess fuel button". I pushed it in & attempted to start it...it "popped" a few times, but, didn't stay running (my throttle is were it was set @ idle when I shut it down)...so, I set the button again, gave it more throttle & it ran for about 3 seconds & sputtered to a stop. So, where do I set the throttle on a diesel to attempt a start? (btw, on the 3rd try, i pushed the button for a 3rd time & I 'feathered" the throttle & it stayed running...but, there muust be a "best" position for the throttle before I start?). Next (see pics) I noticed a missing bolt in the cover behind the injector pump (would this effect starting/running in any way?). 3rd (see pic), to my understanding pulling this button out is the proper way to shut the diesel down? Thanks again, I owe Dandy Dave a beer.
