Helllo, I have a bit of a problem with my 570 diesel and I must admit I dont know diesels all that well. Im going to pull it over to the shop on this weekend and start poking into it a little better but I thought I would get some ideas before to think about.
Ive had this tractor for about a 15 years and its never given me one bit of trouble. Yesterday I went to start it to move some old bales (I hadnt run it for a few months). It fired right up, then the rpms jumped to 2000 and then it died. It would start up after that but the rpms still jumps up to 1600 +/- and dies. I can keep it running if I play with the throttle but the rpms jump and fall. Im thinking a fuel related problem (injection pump) or linkage spring broken on the throttle? Any guesses would be appreciated.
Thanks
