I'm trying to bleed the fuel system on my 4600. I get fuel at the bleeder screw when I turn the key, but no fuel at the injector lines. I know this might simply mean a faulty pump, but I don't have a lot of experience and was wondering if I might be missing something, of if there is something I can check or try.
Thanks

I saw another thread on here that said if I cut the wire connecting two bolts on top and remove them, I can loosen the metering valve. Sound right?

I've checked the kill cable and it's OK. I'm fairly mechanically inclined, just inexperienced with tractors, so I'm good with trying to fix whatever I can. Looks like new injector pumps are $500+ so I don't have much to lose in trying. Do I need to remove the pump?
The tractor hasn't run in over a year.

I repair 3-4 pumps each month with stuck internal parts from setting, usually water in fuel or bio diesel is the problem. Long as the hydraulic head is not seized or severely worn the original pump can be repaired for less than a new China pump..

What Bern said.. When did engine run last? If it's been awhile you may have more internal parts like rotor plungers stuck too along with the metering valve, requiring a complete tear down and cleaning to free everything up again. Have a Ford 172 pump apart now for the same trouble..

Either your kill cable slipped and the shutoff valve is in the off position, or else your internal metering valve is stuck in the off position. The latter is a simple fix if you've done it before, and maybe a little overwhelming if you're not mechanically inclined.

Restoration Story: 1964 JD 2010 Dsl - Part 2 - by Jim Nielsen. Despite having to disassemble the majority of my John Deere 2010's diesel engine, I was still hopeful I could leave the engine-complete with crankshaft and camshaft-in the tractor. This would make the whole engine rebuild job much easier-and much less expensive! I soon found however, that the #4 conrod bearing had disintegrated, taking with it chunks of the crankshaft journal. As a resul
