The original subject was "fuel pump on a jd 5525".
We've had a unit(5525) since new and has had this bleed back back problem from day one and it has only gotten worse. I asked my dealer about it and he told me to start it once a day and I said that was like blowing up a flat tire and not fixing the leak. Then he suggested putting an electric fuel pump on unit and letting it pump up on pressure before starting. Again just put air in flat tire!!!! I replaced the check valve down by the bottom of transmission-rear end on right side and lines but have not solved problem.
