I know there have many posts like this but I think my issue is a little different. I have a 1978 Ford 1600 diesel - 2 cylinder. I started it up last weekend and started right up as usual. I always let it warm up a bit and after a bit I went to get on it and my knee accidently hit the throttle off and of course it died. Since then I have not been able to get it started. It will turn over with black smoke coming out. So it is getting fuel but I bled the lines, etc just in case. I don't want to use ether if I can avoid it. It doesn't even sound like it wants to start. How do I know if the starter is turning it over fast enough? How can something go wrong so fast?Ran great one minute - not at all the next. Help and thanks.
