Gleaner K Fuel Problem

nh8260 · Sep 19, 2020

I got on my Gleaner K Wednesday and was going to get it ready for corn harvest but for some reason i'm not getting any gas to the pump (250 GM gas motor) it ran 2 months ago with no problem, i put 20 gallons in before i tried to start it. I figured the fuel pump went bad (put it on new last winter), i put the old one back on, still nothing. I bought another new one, put it on, still nothing. If i unhook the hose from the pump fuel flows just fine. I have a plastic inline filter (brand new) on it so i can see if gas is getting to the pump, anyone know what could have changed in 2 months for it to do this???

Take the fuel line off at the carburetor and crank the engine over. No fuel would indicate a bad pump or blocked line. Fuel present may indicate a carburetor or spark issue.

Are you 100 % certain that it's a fuel issue ?? You said you changed out the pump last fall, did you turn the petcock valve back on after the change-out ??
