I could use some expertise with my 65 135 UK diesel. It's always started right up even after sitting for month's in the winter. I used it today and everything started off good. Then I went down a small slope and the engine over revved. It's done that before but only about 2400 RPM for a couple seconds till I put the implement back on the ground. This time it revved about 2600 RPM but did work normal once I put my grooming implement down. A few minutes later when I went down a hill again, I slowed the engine down and it still wanted to rev faster but then I couldn't get it to idle at the normal 700+-. It wanted to idle about 1500 and the throttle would adjust itself higher with no input from me, even on level ground. I drove it back and parked it. I let it cool down for about an hour and then it wouldn't start.
I noticed the agglomerator(glass bowl on fuel filter) looked cloudy. I'm wondering if your filters need changing, can the governor act strange and even lean the engine out to make it rev higher? Clogged filters would certainly make it not start but could they cause the other problems as well. Thanks in advance.
